Portstewart motorist doing 100mph 'just wanted to get home'

A motorist with a Portstewart address who hit a speed of 100mph told a court she had "just wanted to get home".

Emily Walsh (30), of Millrush Drive, committed the offence in a 70mph zone - the Frosses Road near Ballymena - at 4.45pm on Saturday November 15 last year.

At Ballymena Magistrates Court on Thursday the defendant said she was now "mortified" by the matter and was "sorry".

She has been banned from driving for a month and fined £100.
