Woman arrested over hit, run

July 17, 2006 07:50am
Article from: AAP

A WOMAN has been arrested after she allegedly fled the scene of an accident in which she ran down and injured a motorcyclist, while intoxicated.
Police allege the woman was travelling east on Kenmore Road at Kenmore, in Brisbane's outer west, at about 6.35pm (AEST) yesterday when she veered onto the wrong side of the road and hit the motorcyclist.

The female motorcyclist skidded along the ground before coming to a halt, near her bike. She was taken to the Royal Brisbane Hospital with two fractured wrists.

Police said the car driver failed to remain at the scene.

A 33-year-old woman was arrested at her home and is expected to be charged with drink driving, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and failure to remain at the scene.

Well it wasn't another death or anything Mina.

Anyway these hit n runners are the worst. I am glad, and also somewhat suprised that she was caught. Normally it just gets chalked up as a one vehicle rider-error accident, and the fuckers get away with it.

Hope she gets put in the slammer for it, it's what she deserves for that. Although being a Kenmorian she no doubt has enough money to buy the judge.

I saw the the bike and bits and pieces as I drove home from my parents place last night, it looked pretty nasty and the cops were still photographing the scene at 10:30 at night - wish they were wearing their reflective gear though...

Its good to hear the rider is not too bad...hope the drink driver goes straight to h...

Hard to guage what a good penalty shoudl/would be.

Id say more for hit and run. Less for just an accident.
(I would like like it to be heeps, but alas our system sucks)

A neighbour of mine did a so called hit and run.

A girl ran across the road, changed her mind and doubled backed across the road, he hit her,
Was 3am 20 plus people with her. He came to a stop (quickly he said) they were chasing his car, throwing bottles etc.

He kept driving around the corner, pulled over called the cops & ambulance. They told him to go home, he got done with hit and run.

He coped a fine, and loss of licence for 2 years for hit and run.

hit and run resulting in injury- licence loss 12 months....at least... if drunk, then double it...

hit and run causing death....licence loss 2 years (mind u it wont be needed spending 2 years in prison)...if drunk...5 years for both..no parole...

of course different circumstances for different situations..... like if it can be proved the "hitee" was drunk or caused their own greif...
