A man's been sentenced for dangerous driving after crashing with parked cars at a car meet.
It happened around 10.55pm on September 30 last year on the Hawksworth Industrial Estate.
22 year-old Milosz Sobiechowski, of Selley Walk, Bishopsworth, Bristol, appeared at Swindon Crown Court on Friday 18 October
Sobiechowski was banned from driving for 12 months and was ordered to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work.
Roads Policing Officer PC Beales said: “Sobiechowski’s actions were incredibly dangerous and it is fortunate that there were no serious injuries.
“It is incidents like these that led us to set up Operation Staysail, the Force response to car meets, around two years ago, as they endanger the public and can cause a significant amount of disruption to local residents.
“On this occasion, Sobiechowski put a number of people in danger and he has now been disqualified from driving.
“As we have said previously, we recognise that genuine car enthusiasts meet lawfully and do so in a manner that doesn’t cause distress to local residents.
“We will continue to target those who break the law, however, and ensure they are robustly dealt with and put before the courts.”
