Extract

A family doctor's wife, aged 42, S.R.N., J.P., social worker and citizen of excellent character, drove her car through a nearby town at about 10.30 p.m. on an autumn night. Later a cyclist was found dead in the road along which she had just passed, parts of her car were found at the scene of the accident, and subsequently damage to her car was found to correspond with the damage to be expected had it been involved in this accident.
