A jury has found that a woman driving a Range Rover smashed into a cyclist after drinking Bacardi and Coke. Janice McVicar, 57, briefly stopped in the middle of the road after the smash and attempted to move a deployed airbag that got stuck under the windscreen, before driving away.
McVicar, of Grange Drive, Eccles, then drove down Moorside Road in Swinton before crashing into a parked car and rolling her white Range Rover Evoque onto its side.
The cyclist, Jade Edmonds, who had taken up bike riding in order to get fit for her wedding, was left with significant injuries - including brain damage and a partial loss of sight in one eye - and needed intensive surgery.
