TikTok influencer HSTikkyTokky has been handed a suspended sentenced for crashing a McLaren supercar & spending nearly a year on the run from police.
The 24-year-old, real name is Harrison Sullivan, pled guilty to dangerous driving and driving without insurance in October.
Sullivan had been wanted by Surrey Police in connection with the crash in Virginia Water in March last year.
He failed to attend court in November and later posted social media videos from Qatar, Dubai, Thailand and Spain before getting extradited and arrested.
At Staines Magistrates’ Court, Sullivan was given a 12-month prison sentence, suspended for two years, disqualified from driving for two years and ordered to undertake 300 hours of unpaid work.
He was also sentenced to a three-month curfew and ordered to be electronically monitored, complete an extended driving test after two years and undertake 30 days of rehabilitation.
The judge described Sullivan’s actions as a “deliberate decision to ignore the rules of the road”.
However, she added that she would not hand out a harsher sentence in order to set an example to his large social media following.
In a letter to the court, Sullivan said he was “ashamed” of his actions.
“I understand that if I am acting in a dangerous way, this could influence others to do the same,” he said.
“Spreading a positive message and helping people less fortunate than myself, that’s what makes me the happiest.”
Sullivan was driving a purple McLaren at more than 71mph on the single-carriageway A30, which has a 40mph speed limit, when it crashed with another vehicle, the court heard.
