Would have been a different story if someone had been injured. Sounds far to lenient to me  :angry:

Police said if she accepts the course it means she accepts full responsibility for the accident !!
Was 4 witnesses and a off duty copper as a witness and she admitted at the scene she had fallen asleep,
Don't you just love the British justice system  :angry:

If he hadn't swerved off the road it would of been a head on collision and both traveling about 60mph
Would of been fatal no doubt cos she wouldn't of braked as she was asleep   :shocked:

That looks nasty Neil, glad all involved was ok tho...

Back in my moped days I was riding along minding my own business as you do lol and a fella decided to come across my right of way and nocked me clean off, my back went into his windscreen, moped in pieces ect and all he got was a drivers awareness course :angry:

Still to this day I remember his name....
