A teenager created a "domino effect" of damage after she smashed her friend's car into a parked vehicle and wrote it off.
Lana Carmody, 18, caused thousands of pounds worth of damage on February 28 this year after she crashed her friend's car when popping out to buy a loaf of bread - despite having no insurance or a driving licence. As well as her friend's car, three other vehicles were damaged in the incident.
On Tuesday, Carmody, of Stanley Street, Sunderland, appeared at South Tyneside Magistrates' Court to be sentenced for aggravated vehicle taking and driving without a licence or insurance.
