Driver left cyclist dad brain damaged after running red light before blaming him
27.05.2022 - 17:05 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A dangerous driver crashed into a cyclist after 'barreling' through a red light - then claimed the collision was his fault.
Derek Hall sped through the pelican crossing on Queslett Road in Great Barr where other motorists had already stopped, Birmingham Live reports.
He ploughed into the dad-of-two and sent him flying through the air, before trying to blame him for smash because he had headphones on and was not wearing high visibility clothing.
The cyclist, in his 30s, suffered serious injuries including brain damage, which doctors initially feared would be 'unsurvivable'.
Three years on from the accident, he is unable to walk or talk and continues to receive treatment at a rehabilitation centre.
His devastated wife said her family effectively died on that day of the collision, saying now she was 'so tired I can't even cry'.
Hall, aged 60, of Dyas Road, Great Barr, pleaded guilty to causing serious injury by dangerous driving. At Birmingham Crown Court on Wednesday, May 25, he was jailed for three years and four months as well as banned from driving for three years, eight months.
Judge Sarah Buckingham said: "You were driving too fast for that piece of the road. The lights were on red and you should have stopped.
"You showed total disregard for pedestrians and other road users at that point. You didn't slow down and continued to drive in that manner."
The collision occurred at 7.42am on Tuesday, January 29 in 2019.
The court heard that the particular stretch of Queslett Road has a 40mph speed limit and that there was a red triangular warning sign 110 metres before the junction while the road surface became 'high friction' 100 metres ahead of it.
Prosecutor Michael Aspinall stated a motorist waiting at the lights closed
