A man from Aylesbury has been jailed for three years for dangerous driving after he caused a woman to suffer multiple fractures to her spine.
At around 3.50pm on 16th March 2021, 41-year-old Timothy Seviour was driving northbound on the A418 Aylesbury Road between Pegasus Way and Churchway when he attempted to overtake a number of vehicles, where the speed limit was 50mph.
He was driving on the opposite side of the carriageway for long periods, which resulted in a collision with another vehicle.
The victim, a woman in her twenties, suffered fractures to her spine including a burst fracture to her lower spine.
Seviour was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment and disqualified from driving for five years at Aylesbury Crown Court on Friday 18th February.
Investigating officer, PC Martin Woodford, of the Roads Policing Joint Operations Unit at Amersham police station, said: “This was a tragic incident in which a woman was left with serious injuries.
“The sentence delivered by the court sends a strong message to those who drive dangerously and it will serve to reassure the public that the police and justice system take these matters very seriously.
“This now takes a dangerous offender off the roads for some time.”
