Powell, of Oak Crescent, Clehonger, was fined £300, received six penalty points, and was ordered to pay costs of £90 and a £34 victim surcharge.
No totting disqualification was made as, the court heard, Powell needs to drive to take her children to school and college and to visit a relative who has recently been diagnosed with Alzheimers, and a roads ban would cause exceptional hardship.
