A driving instructor who told a 17-year-old pupil her breasts would make a good mobile phone holder has been convicted of sexual assault.
David Austin, 59, made the remark as he pressed his phone into the teenager's cleavage.
Another girl of the same age was left "distressed and upset" after he suggested she should undo buttons on her top as punishment for missing lessons then lunged at her.
Twice-married Austin, who was convicted of two charges of sexual assault, was spared jail yesterday.
Instead, he received a 12-month supervision order and was told to do 80 hours of unpaid community work.
Judge John Holt told him: "You took advantage of two young, female pupils. You are a touchy-feely type of person but on these two occasions you allowed your behaviour to cross the line and caused distress to each of these pupils." More MagazineLane.com
