Default Pavement motorist jailed for 12 years.

Its amazing that such people are let loose on our roads and pavements.
What if a cyclist had happened to get in his way? Presumably he will
be allowed to drive again and put lives at risk following his 10 year
driving ban.

"A drunken motorist who drove his car at a group of his friends
following a row outside a Bristol pub has been jailed for 12 years.

Luke Julius, 25, from Bedminster, mounted a pavement and hit 26-year-
old Beverley Cousins on 11 September 2011.

Bristol Crown Court heard she was so badly injured that she had her
right leg amputated above the knee.

Julius admitted causing grievous bodily harm with intent, dangerous
driving and drink-driving at an earlier hearing..."
