A man who was banned from getting behind the wheel took his girlfriend’s car after an argument and drove it through a garden wall.
Paul Binsteed later told police he “lost his head” and had been drinking and taking drugs in the hours before he crashed the Nissan Quashqui in Maghull in December last year.
The 34 year old was part of the way through a four year disqualification for drug driving when he took the car.
