A Glasgow driver crashed into two cars after a Christmas Day fallout.

James Shields, 44, was driving on Anniesland Road on December 25, 2021.

Near the Tesco store, he lost control of his car, left the road, crossed a grass verge and collided with a lamppost.

Then, Shields crashed into two parked cars, which then smashed into a third parked vehicle.

The first two cars suffered catastrophic damage and the third had superficial damage.

Witnesses saw three young men leaving the scene. 

Police were called and a forensic examination was carried out.

Shields, of Scotstounhill, was cautioned and charged.

He appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court this week, after he pleaded guilty to driving dangerously, crashing into the lamppost and cars, and failing to stop and give his details to report the accident. 

His lawyer said: "There had been a fallout on Christmas Day. He wanted to see his children from a previous relationship.

"The road conditions were not too good and he lost control.

"There was no contact with another moving vehicle. There have been payments made to the owners through insurance."

Sheriff Allan McKay said: "You must have been going at some speed to do the damage you did."

Shields was disqualified from driving for 18 months.

He was also tagged, requiring him to stay within his home between 9pm and 6am, from Monday to Saturday, for 90 days.
