The parents of a cyclist killed by a driver who hit him from behind with his Jeep have asked: "Why didn't you see him?" The victim was thrown into the air after being hit and suffered a serious head injury which led to his death.
Raymond Treharne, 73, killed David Jones when his Grand Cherokee collided with his bike on the A48 Crack Hill in Bridgend at around 5.50am on May 27, 2020. Following the collision the defendant was "in shock" and told people: "I hit him.... He was standing on the bike. He fell into the road."
Mr Jones hit the ground, was not moving, and was covered in blood as his bike went under the vehicle. He was later pronounced dead at the scene.
