A banned driver was involved in a dangerous police chase across west Leeds after he borrowed his neighbour's moped to buy nappies in the middle of the night.

Darren Kaye refused to stop when police officers spotted him driving the scooter at speed along Armley Town Street in the early hours of April 28 this year.

Leeds Crown Court heard Kaye ignored a no-entry sign on Branch Road and drove the wrong way down a one-way street.
