A 54 year old Exeter woman has appeared in court charged with driving a car while unfit through drugs and causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
Susan Walker, of Blackthorn Cresent, Exeter, did not enter any pleas to three charges when she appeared at Exeter magistrates court today.
She is charged with driving a Mitsubishi car on the A376 at Clyst St George in January whilst unfit to drive through drugs; possessing 0.12 grammes of amphetamine, and causing serious injury to Dorothy Ferrier and Jennifer Pride by driving a car dangerously on the A376.
The prosecution allege her car crossed the dual carriageway where there are no central reservation barriers and into the path of an oncoming car which left the two occupants with broken legs and spinal injuries.
The case was sent to Exeter Crown Court for a hearing later this month and Walker was bailed.
