Lucy Knowles, from Chesterfield, suffered severe injuries when a car hit trees off Harewood Road in Holymoorside, on 2 April.
The teenager died later in hospital.
At Derby Crown Court on Monday, William Eade, 18, of Enfield Road, Newbold, Chesterfield, pleaded guilty to causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving.
