A Scots WAG who was seen driving with sparks flying off her shredded tyres during a police chase has been told her conduct was "one of the worst examples of dangerous driving" a sheriff has ever seen. Jo-Hannah Eardley - partner of Livingston FC ace Cristian Montano - repeatedly struck a central reservation and drove her Smart car in the dark with no headlights in Edinburgh earlier this year.
Eardley, 29, drove at high speeds along the city's Glasgow Road with fuel leaking from her vehicle before officers eventually traced the abandoned motor near to her home. Police were said to have been forced to call out the fire service for fear of the car bursting into flames.
The finance worker pleaded guilty to a charge of dangerous driving when she appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court last month and was back for sentencing today. Sheriff Peter McCormack said: "I take into account this is your first conviction and hopefully it will be your last.
