British motorists blame steroids for improper behavior during driving

However it is not yet proven scientifically whether “roid rage” is an adverse consequence of steroids, these products are blamed for some crimes quite frequently.
Michael Barton, a young man from Britain, hit a Ford Fiesta, while he was driving his Volkswagen Golf. Paul Gard was a motorist of Ford Fiesta. Barton had passed Paul Gard. But then he had to pull back in front of Paul Gard, since another car was driving the other way. Paul Gard flashed him. Thus, he had to brake suddenly. Barton became angered, stopped his car, broke the wing mirror of Gard’s vehicle and hit the man in the face. Then Gard’s wife took her mobile and informed police. While she was calling, Barton left calmly.
Michael Barton, a 21-year-old person who has a child of two years old, utilizes steroids to bulk up. So, it has been said that these medications affected his behavior. The defense attorney for Michael Barton affirmed that steroids influenced negatively on temperament of his client, since these medications enhanced his levels of testosterone.
Earlier Barton was convicted for certain crimes, including domestic violence. Last year this young person pleaded guilty to an assault, criminal damage and driving incautiously due to his anger following assaults.
The judge Patrick Hooton at Portsmouth Crown Court Deputy Circuit confirmed that he was not sure that steroids were responsible for his improper behavior. But he noted that it was totally mad to get angered and hit a man in the face just because he flashed him. The judge noted that Barton’s behavior was too disgraceful and he announced: “you ought to go to prison”.
Thus, this person was sentenced to 6-month jail sentence suspended for a year; he was also sentenced to pay 500 dollars in compensation and ?277 for damage of the Ford Fiesta.
