18-year-old motorist failed to stop for police in Larne in early hours
An 18-year-old motorist sped through Larne.
Joel Robinson, of Moyle Parade, Larne, admitted failing to stop and driving without due care and attention at 1.50am on July 5, 2025.
Ballymena Magistrates Court heard police saw a vehicle "travelling at speed" in Larne.
Police turned but the vehicle "accelerated sharply" before another police vehicle caught up with him.
A defence solicitor said the defendant knew he had been exceeding the speed limit initially and when police pursued him he "panicked".
He was given five penalty points and fined £300.
