Mrs Allsop added that when the matter was originally before the police traffic court Shepherd denied being the driver but after she was shown footage of her driving she admitted the offences.
Jobless Shepherd, who is dependent on benefits, pleaded guilty to driving without a licence and to driving without insurance after the offences were committed on March 26.
Magistrates fined Shepherd, who was dealt with in her absence, £135 and ordered her to pay a £30 victim surcharge and £250 costs.
They also imposed six penalty points on her licence.
