Taxi Driver Online

Party girl drove off in taxi

AN 18-year-old girl who had been to a party in Hoddlesden climbed into the driver's seat and sped off after a row with the taxi driver who was taking her and her friends home.

Blackburn magistrates heard Victoria Myerscough left the taxi driver and one of her friends stood at the roadside. But within seconds she had crashed into a hedge, damaging the vehicle and causing injuries to another friend who was still in the back.

Myerscough, of Neville Close, Bolton, pleaded guilty to taking a vehicle without consent aggravated by damage caused, driving with excess alcohol and without insurance. She was sentenced to 90 days in prison suspended for 12 months, banned for two years and fined £100 with £65 costs.

Clare Knight, defending, said the offence was out of character. She had been to a party and drunk more than she was used to.

So who pays for the damage to the cab, and his NCB and lose of wages?????????? or can he claim from the court

Him or his insurance company can sue the stupid cow, but guessing from the size of the fine I would say she hasn't a lot of money.

most insurers would consider that non cost effective the claim will probably go against his ncb although he might be able to claim some compensation through the courts

Same old bullshit line there then.

I know it is easy to say this as i do not know the circumstances of what happened.But my rule is that if i am out the car,the key is out the car!
