Boggs identified herself to the injured party.
A solicitor representing the defendant said she had been driving for 25 years and had no accidents prior to this, she had been rushing to a call and there was a lack of concentration on her part.
District Judge, Mr Paul Copeland, said he was imposing nine points given the fact that pedestrians were put at a significant risk.
