Maundo was interviewed by police on July 22, 2019, but never provided any explanation for the manner of his driving or what caused him to veer across the carriageway, Mr Kiely told the court.
The court heard that Maundo had passed his full driving test in December, 2018, and had been driving for only seven months at the time of the crash.
He also had a previous conviction for driving without due care and attention after crashing his Honda motorcycle on the A140 in June 2015.
In that incident he also veered across the carriageway after being seen by a witness slowing down and speeding up for around ten miles.

A judge has imposed an interim hospital order on a gun dealer who fatally shot his solicitor wife at their Suffolk farmhouse.
Hartshorne-Jones denied murdering his 41-year-old wife Silke but admitted manslaughter by reason of diminished responsibility at a hearing in September.
Mrs Hartshorne-Jones was found on the floor upstairs, with two gunshot wounds, after police were called by her husband at 4.45am.
She was taken to Ipswich Hospital but died a short time later at 6.42am.
