An uninsured driver who was caught speeding in Southampton has been fined £300. 

Mia Hudson-Mcrae, 19, was clocked at 41mph as she drove a Fiat 500 on Maybray King Way in Bitterne.

She was caught by an automatic speed camera as she drove westbound on June 11 last year. 

But since the incident, she has also admitted to having no insurance at the time of the offence. 

Hudson-Mcrae of Brookwood Road admitted the two charges at Southampton Magistrates' Court.

She was fined £300 for the insurance charge after magistrates' ruled that she had an "honest belief" that she had a policy of insurance in place at the time. 

The car had been fitted with a black box and her mobile app was working. 

She only found out her black box was not working when she called the insurer to find out why the money had not been taken. 

The 19-year-old also received four points on her licence for the speeding offence and must pay a £30 surcharge.
