The 30-year-old was caught on the A34 near Hinksey driving a Ford vehicle and not wearing a seatbelt on July 2 last year.
He pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity in court was sentenced. He was ordered to pay a fine of £80, court courts of £20 and a victim surcharge of £20.
The court heard the case was reopened after Lee was previously sentenced for failing to provide his identity to police when asked.
Tran, of Redwing Close, Bicester, was charged with a different traffic offence – namely driving without third-party insurance and without a licence.
The 31-year-old was caught in West Yorkshire on January 18 this year driving a vehicle he wasn’t insured on and without a valid driving licence.
