The charges relate to an incident on July 27, on Brookfield Avenue.
In total Riggs admitted attempting to pervert the course of justice by giving police a false name, escaping from lawful custody, driving while disqualified, failing to provide a specimen of breath, and driving with no insurance.
The case was adjourned until tomorrow for a sentencing hearing.
