Father-of-two Gordon Alexander suffered a spinal cord injury as a result of the smash in April 2022 and will never walk again.
A Scots biker who was left paralysed after a teen hit him with a car says his injuries have devastated his life.
"When in hospital all I could think about was how much of a burden I would be to my family and wondered if the world would be a better place without me being in it. “The freedom, the camaraderie. If you're not a biker, you'll never understand what grips you so much." Gordon said he would like to meet Varey one day in order to show just how much his actions have his effected his life.
“And for the wider public, I hope it reminds people that vehicles are dangerous in the wrong hands and complacency can destroy lives.”The court heard that the charge of “causing serious injury by careless driving” – known as Section 2C of the same Act – was not introduced until nearly three months after this incident happened.
Sheriff Craig Findlater sentenced Varey to six points on his licence reduced from nine points due to his early plea.
