A woman was fined £1,000 and summoned to court for motoring offences committed in a car that didn't belong to her.
Sarmite Reinholde had given her Audi A5 back to a finance company in October 2018 having used it for a 12 months. But years later she realised the authorities still believed she was the car's driver after being sent a growing number of fines to her old address - which she'd been oblivious to.
Four years after returning the car, the mum-of-one has clocked up more than a grand in fines which should never have been directed to her, and has had to defend herself in court. The 33-year-old has also been unable to remove a county court judgement on her name and six points from her licence.
