A young female Co Down driver crashed into two female cyclists while on her way to show her mother Father Ted’s house in the Burren in Co Clare last September, a court has heard.
At Ennis District Court on Wednesday, solicitor for Cara Jane O’Neill of Lyna Doyle Place, Downpatrick, Co Down, Billy Loughnane said Ms O’Neill did not see a ‘stop’ sign before crashing into the two cyclists.
Sgt Aiden Lonergan said that one of the cyclists sustained fractures to her lower back and had to be removed by ambulance from the scene to hospital after the collision with Ms O’Neill’s silver Vauxhall Astra.
