Harrison Sullivan, 24, known online as HSTikkyTokky, was wanted after the March 2024 crash in Virginia Water, Surrey.
TikTok influencer HSTikkyTokky has avoided a custodial sentence after crashing a McLaren at high speed and failing to appear in court for nearly a year.
Harrison Sullivan, 24, known online as HSTikkyTokky, was wanted after the March 2024 crash in Virginia Water, Surrey. Following the incident, he spent 12 months in Dubai, Thailand, and Spain, continuing to post social media content, the court heard.
Sullivan was eventually detained in Spain for unrelated matters in August, returned to the UK by police, and arrested. On Friday, he appeared at Staines Magistrates’ Court in a grey prison tracksuit and was handed a one-year suspended sentence.
He has also been disqualified from driving for two years.
Last month, the influencer pleaded guilty to dangerous driving and driving without insurance. Several family members and friends attended the hearing and were warned to keep their phones switched off.
Witnesses told police Sullivan was “in a supercar going extremely fast,” with one claiming he was travelling at “at least 100mph or more” before the crash.
Data from the McLaren showed he was travelling at 71mph in a 40mph zone at the time of the incident. Prosecutor Kane Alexander said: “It was going 30mph over the speed limit on a single carriageway in broad daylight with other road users.”
Sullivan is reportedly due to feature in a Louis Theroux documentary for Netflix, exploring the impact of online misogyny on young boys. In one viral clip, Theroux recites a previous remark from Sullivan: “Call me racist, call me a misogynist, call me homophobic, call me a scammer – I’m all those things.”
Sullivan responded: “That’s my way of saying I don’t care. Say what you want about me… I am that, cool. I don’t care. And what?”
In a letter to the judge, Sullivan said: “Spreading a positive message and helping people less fortunate than myself, that’s what makes me the happiest.”
As part of his sentence, Sullivan will wear an electronic tag for three months and complete 300 hours of unpaid work along with 30 days of rehabilitation.
The prosecution is also seeking £18,049.47 from Sullivan to cover Surrey Police’s chartered flight to bring him back to the UK. A costs hearing is scheduled for 15 January at Staines Magistrates’ Court.
