Sheikh's Son Takes His Mother Mercedes Car For Joyride In London

The teenage son of a Sheikh led police on a high speed car chase the wrong way through a one way system in his mother's stolen Mercedes before crashing into a traffic light - but has avoided a driving ban. The 16-year-old, from Kensington, London, who cannot be named for legal reasons, careered through red lights with five police cars in pursuit before smashing into the pole and then hitting a taxi. The disturbing incident was caught on video by CCTV cameras in the area and shows the teenager tearing through the streets pursued by police patrol cars - at one point on the wrong side of the road - before he hits a traffic light with such force the pole is knocked over
