Graeme John McKillop of Garfield Lodge, High Street, admitted a drug driving offence on February 23 this year on Witchburn Road in the town.
Procurator fiscal depute Anne Marie Hicks said that police had cause to stop the vehicle for a minor defect and the offence was discovered.
A blood test showed a cocaine level of 126 microgrammes of the class A drug per litre of blood; the limit is 10 microgrammes.
Defence agent Stephen MacSporran presented the sheriff with a letter from McKillop’s GP and said that the man had the support of his family.
