The local rag were covering the Court Case and have revealled that Putz had 20 (TWENTY!) previous disqualifications, three drink drive convictions and three previous convictions for reckless driving.

...as well as being drunk and on the phone when he ran over Catriona. Sounds to me he should have been banned from driving years ago.
I don't know what motivated her to act, but 'Julie' the lady purporting to be Putz' wife who came to this thread shortly after the collision and tried to paint her husband's actions as merely part of an innocent accident would have known this when she wrote to us here. I am shocked.
How many disqualifications can you get before they take your license away FFS?!
RIP Catriona Patel, my heart goes out to your family and friends who will have had to have sat through a gruelling, emotional trial. I hope they feel that Justice has been served on your behalf.
