A grandmother who clocked up 90 motoring offences while terrorising the roads for over 27 years has been jailed for 12 months.
Kerry Taylor, 44, was arrested again after ignoring two driving bans and crashing a stolen car during a hit and run on August 9.
She ploughed the Renault Clio into a Toyota Aygo before veering onto the wrong side of the road and into the path of oncoming traffic in a bid to escape.
Inquiries revealed the mother-of-three had motoring convictions dating back to 1994 including for drink driving, drug driving and failing to stop after an accident.
At Bolton Crown Court, Taylor, of Wigan, Greater Manchester, broke down in tears as she was sentenced to 12 months in prison and branded a 'danger to the roads'.

Seven weeks before the hit and run, Taylor had been given a 30-month road ban after driving a VW Golf while four times the drug-drive limit.
In April she was handed a 12-month disqualification for driving the same car while eight times the drug limit.
She was also given a further 40-month driving ban after admitting aggravated vehicle taking, dangerous driving, driving while disqualified, failing to stop and having no insurance.
The hit-and-run crash occurred after Taylor was seen driving the Clio which had been stolen two weeks earlier from an Amazon delivery driver who had been dropping off parcels.
Gemma Maxwell, prosecuting, said: 'Officers saw the Clio being reversed at speed whereupon it collided with the Toyota.
'It then accelerated away and was driven at speed on the wrong side of the road forcing oncoming vehicles to take evasive action.
'At the time the road was very busy, there were a lot of vehicles and little room for manoeuvre, police pursed the vehicle and it was stopped when she was hemmed in when other officer arrived on the scene.
'She was removed from the car but made no reply.'
In a statement Kevin Sharman, the Toyota owner who is in his 80s, said: 'My car had to be written off due to the significant damage caused.
