Driver fined just £145 after breaking cyclist’s leg
*Driver fined just £145 after breaking cyclist’s leg*
A cyclist who who had to learn how to walk again after a horrific collision has said she felt ‘let down’ after the driver who hit her was fined just £145. Laura Cameron had just recorded a victory that put her on the verge of becoming a professional cyclist, when a vehicle turned head-on in to her path leaving her with an open double fracture. But she was left dismayed after the driver, who left her facing an excruciating six months of rehabilitation, was fined just £145 and given four points on his licence for careless driving. A charge of leaving the scene of an accident was dropped after a police notebook containing evidence was lost, Bexley Magistrates’ Court was told.
