A crash happened here causing a cyclist to have a very severly damaged leg. The court found that the driver was at fault, but he only got a six point penalty and £300 costs.


Unfortunately this link is broken:

but a search for "Cyclist whose leg was smashed by careless driver slams justice system" reveals a depressingly long list of other cases of lenient sentences handed to drivers who cause injuries from loss of limbs to permanent vegetative state.
