Pensioner drove at 70mph wrong way on dual carriageway

A CONFUSED pensioner sped along the wrong side of the dual carriageway at 70 mph for at least six miles before she was eventually brought to a halt.

Karen Hutchins, 66, ignored horrified drivers who flashed their lights at her to alert her she was going the wrong way.

At Perth Sheriff Court, Hutchins, of Sutton Coldfield, admitted driving dangerously and on the wrong side of the road between Inchmichael and Longforgan on the A9 in November. Sentence was deferred.
