Gratuitous insertion of helmet comment obligatory.
I never, ever understand how driving bans run concurrent with a
custodial sentence- YOU CAN'T DRIVE IN PRISON!!!
A motorist who was texting on her mobile phone ...
... has been sentenced to four years in prison. ...

The 25-year-old from Hythe, Hampshire, was banned from driving for
five years.

Relax. Don't burst a blood vessel.

She'll be out of prison before the driving ban is up and so will have to
serve some of it. Prisoners rarely serve the whole sentence. Driving
bans are always served in full.

"She'll be out of prison before the driving ban is up and so will have

"Driving bans are always served in full."

Ummmm. Serve some of it, or all of it?

All of it. You can rest assured that she will not be driving whilst
locked up.
