Chesterfield driver gets ban after 'shooting away' from police with no insurance
Officers on Derbyshire's Roads Policing Unit caught the driver in Staveley yesterday (June 20) before he shot down a dead end and ended up running back towards cops - saying he was "taking it to the scrap yard".
The Volkswagen Beetle driver already had 11 points on his licence and will now be banned from driving, with a date at Chesterfield Magistrates' Court.
