A driver revved his engine before hitting a pony instructor in front of horrified children.
Dangerous driver Jack David Brown nearly killed the woman as she chaperoned a group of kids riding ponies near a rural village.
The 27-year-old tried to claim the instructor, a woman in her fifties, had "thrown herself" at his car when she was knocked backwards breaking her spine in the collision in Hunton, North Yorkshire, in January last year.
