Default Police hunt for driver after cyclist injured in Dalgety Bay hit and run

QUOTE:
Police in Fife are hunting a motorist who fled the scene after colliding with a female cyclist, leaving her needing hospital treatment for multiple injuries.

The incident happened just after 3pm on Saturday at the roundabout on Harbour Drive in Dalgety Bay.

Eyewitnesses say the driver of a silver vehicle traveling (SIC) along Harbour Drive in the direction of Dalgety Bay Sports Centre, struck the back wheel of the cyclist who was on the roundabout heading towards Harbour Way, causing her to fall to the ground.

The driver, described as an elderly male, is then reported to have got out of the vehicle for a few seconds before getting back into his car and ***driving over an adjacent pavement before fleeing the scene.*** (EMPHASIS MINE).

A number of people in the area at the time came to the aid of the cyclist who suffered various injuries in the collision.

She was taken to Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy where she was treated and later released.

The jurno must be using an American English spell checker.

Looks like our footpaths are getting mighty crowded these days when
you add together all the errant drivers and cyclists.
