An uninsured motorist who left a "highly respected dentist" fighting for his life when he drove in to three cyclists after falling asleep at the wheel has been jailed for 45 months.
Michael Bradbury, 30, drove off without helping the three seriously injured riders despite knowing "he had hit something" on the A15, south of Lincoln.
William Tweddell, 58, who owned a dentist practice in Colchester, was immediately knocked unconscious and remains in hospital a year after suffering multiple injuries in the collision which left him paralysed and wheelchair bound.
