'To this day I still don't understand why anyone would be so cruel. It wasn't a minor incident': Hit-and-run driver laughed at seriously injured cyclist before fleeing crash scene cycling
Almost a year on since Simon Woodings was seriously injured when he was hit by a driver in Burton upon Trent the 43-year-old cyclist still does not understand what motivated the"cruel" driver to get out their vehicle, laugh at him and then drive off.
The collision caused injury to Mr Woodings' ankle and foot, the latter was broken and needed surgery to insert titanium plates and pins, and left him in hospital for 10 days.One moment I was cycling along the road and the next thing I remember was something crashing into me and being on the ground," he recalled.
The man stayed with the injured cyclist until the emergency services arrived at the scene and even dropped his bicycle back to Mr Wooding's house while he was being treated in hospital.The last few months have been incredibly stressful for me and it's been difficult to accept what happened," Mr Woodings continued.
