"Reckless" driver risked lives as he raced through town at 70mph during police chase

  • last year
A "reckless" driver who risked lives as he raced through a town at more than double the speed limit has been jailed.
Leroy Harding, 35, reached 70mph in a 30mph zone as he led police through Melksham, Wilts., last month.
He was sentenced to 16 months in prison after admitting dangerous driving and two other charges.
Dramatic footage shows Harding driving on the wrong side of the road and on the pavement on January 9 as officers give chase.
