A woman who was disqualified from driving lied to police and gave officers her best friend's name after she crashed into a parked car, a court heard. She had also used her friend's name to insure the car due to her not having a licence.
Charlotte Evans, 30, bought a Vauxhall Corsa on April 3, 2021, and insured the car under the name of Chloe Cavell, who she had been friends with for 21 years, a judge was told. She had previously been convicted of drink driving and had been disqualified from driving.
A sentencing hearing at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court in Wales on Friday heard Evans did not seek Ms Cavell's permission to insure her car in her name.

She was said to have been unaware Evans had used her name, and was confused as to how she had obtained insurance due to her disqualification, reports Wales Online.
On April 9, 2021, Evans was involved in a collision in Arthur Street, Tonypandy, Wales, when she collided with a parked stationary car. When police attended the scene, they described the defendant's speech as "slurred", her behaviour was erratic and she smelt of intoxicants.
When asked to provide her details, Evans, of Tonyrefail, gave her name as Chloe Cavell and provided her friend's date of birth. She was taken to Merthyr Tydfil police station and underwent a breathalyser test, measuring a reading of 32 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath, below the drink drive limit. She continued to use the false name, and was released by police.
Prosecutor Nuhu Gobir said Ms Cavell was in work when she learnt about the collision on social
