A biker who left a holidaymaker disabled in a head-on motorbike smash has been spared jail.. Usman Rashid smashed into Hubert Hardie by speeding round a blind bend near Loch Lomond. The "life-changing" collision occurred as the pair rode near the village of Tarbet, Argyll and Bute.
The French tourist had to have emergency surgery to save his right leg, suffered a broken spine, and spent more than a month in hospital in Scotland. It took him so long to recover from his injuries that he had to be discharged to another hospital in his homeland.
