A drink driver killed a young carer in an accident after doing the same thing to a passenger in his car 14 years ago. Matthew Plimmer was branded a danger to the public for offences of driving.
He was even subject to a 20-month driving ban for drink-driving when he ploughed into latest victim Jessica Drury, 25, of Bulwell, who had been properly driving her Fiat Punto. Nottingham Crown Court heard on Friday (November 11) Plimmer was witnessed by a bar worker downing two pints and five Sambucas earlier in the evening at a local pub.
Later, in his Audi Q7, he veered into Jessica's lane in Southwell Road, Oxton, on January 19 this year, hitting her car head-on, and causing multiple injuries. She died at the scene.
