sleeping driver crash

A 28-year-old man from Rowen in Conwy, U.K., has been jailed following a shocking collision in which a cyclist was seriously injured.

The CCTV footage shows Jake David Tomkinson veering onto the wrong side of the road before hitting the cyclist, causing him to somersault through the air and suffer serious injuries. North Wales Police has released the video with the permission of cyclist Gareth Evans in a bid to highlight the dangers of driving while tired.

 

Tompkinson was sentenced to 12 months and banned from driving for two and a half years for the collision in which Gareth Evans sustained 22 injuries including a punctured and bruised lung.
