Show Off Learner Jailed For Hitting Grandmother Whilst Speeding

This one makes you step back and think. Akif Hussain was on a provisional licence, was driving uninsured and unsupervised, and was showing off to his mates when he slammed into a 74-year old woman in Nelson, Lancs. He was driving at 59mph in a 30mph zone.

He was jailed for 18 months, ordered to pay £2,000, which he had saved up, in compensation to Mrs Gribble, banned for two years and must take an extended retest.

What pulls you up, though, is the fact that he is a charity worker for the British Heart Foundation, is an IT student, and has worked with disabled children.

It just goes to show that even the nice people can behave like total prats when they’re in a car, and especially when they’re young, immature, and inexperienced.
