For driving uninsured he was fined £200 and disqualified for six months.

The court heard a parked vehicle was badly damaged to the front passenger side on the North Circular Road.

Curry said someone had waved at him and he had taken his eyes off the road before he hit the parked car. He added that he panicked because he did not know what to do as he did not have a licence.
