She admitted dangerous driving, driving without insurance or a licence and failing to stop in High Street, Cosham, on September 23.

Grant was jailed for 16 weeks and banned from driving for 47 months and 25 days.

She must pay a £122 victim surcharge.

Grant caused an injury, evaded police at the scene and has a record of offending.
