From Cambridge News 18 Oct 2007:
AN 80-YEAR-OLD motorist hit a cyclist as he made a turn through a line of traffic.
Leonard Newell, who still works four days a week as a lawnmower repair man, was waiting to turn right from the city's Trumpington Road into Beverley Way. When a gap opened in the slow-moving traffic he was flashed by another driver to proceed.
But he failed to see a woman cycling on the inside of the traffic and the pair collided, Cambridge magistrates were told.
The cyclist received minor injuries in the incident, which happened in darkness on January 22.
Newell of Hauxton Road, Cambridge pleaded guilty to careless driving. He was fined £80, with £60 court costs and four penalty points on his licence.
James Dignan, in mitigation, said: "Mr Newell works four days a week and is perfectly able-bodied and perfectly sound of mind. There is absolutely no need for the court to consider taking him off the road."
The incident could have happened to a motorist of any age, he said
