    Jail for banned driver who crashed at high speed during police pursuit in Bradford

    Wednesday, 7 December 2016 16:59

    A high speed chase led to a man hanging on for his safety until the local police came to his rescue.

    Jordan Hatt, who was already banned from driving fled a high speed crash until he was rescued by the police. Hatt ran off after losing control of his vehicle in a police pursuit, spinning across the carriageway and destroying a stone wall.

    Hatt, 27, of Rawson Street, Wyke & father of 3, was disqualified from driving three months earlier. Hatt was handed a jail sentence of 12 months at Bradford Crown Court yesterday and banned from driving for three and a half years.

     

    He pleaded guilty to dangerous driving and driving while disqualified shortly after midnight on 30th of October 2016.

    The court heard, Hatt had dozens of previous convictions most notably motoring offences, some of which included a failure to provide a specimen of breath for analysis in April 2015.

     

    Hatt was driving in excess of 70mph in a 30mph zone on Cleckheaton Road causing £10,000 worth of damages to a wall and electrical boxes.

     

    The judge, Recorder Simon Batiste, said: "It was a highly dangerous piece of driving and could have led to the death or serious injury of other people."
