motorist driving along a pavement, in the course of which he injured
six people, one very badly.



Many, many moons ago (about 25 years, I guess), there was an incident
outside my school. There were lots of cars parked outside (you know,
little darling can't walk home), plus queues, and a reasonable number
of parents walking, too. One parent decided to overtake the queue by
driving her Mini along the pavement and push in further along. She was
on the pavement for about 20-25 vehicle lengths.

Fortunately, no-one was hurt, other than thousands of jaws dropping and
hitting the pavement.
