An air hostess on her way home to Addingham from Scotland was clocked doing 90mph in her Mini Cooper, a court heard.

Janine Heptonstall, 41, had just taken over the driving from her husband, a consultant, on October 28 when she accelerated to overtake two cars on the Settle bypass.

Heptonstall, a cabin crew member with British Midland at Leeds Bradford Airport, was normally a careful and considerate driver, Skipton magistrates were told.

Heptonstall, of Cross Bank Road, admitted speeding.

She was fined £120 and had her licence endorsed with five penalty points.

She was also ordered to pay £45 costs and a £15 victim's surcharge.
