The BBC piece. An extract:

“She was fined £485 with an additional £400 in court costs and a surcharge of £194.”

No mention in the BBC piece of the male nurse she injured, Mark Le Sage. From this Telegraph piece (£) we learn that Le Sage recounted in a victim impact statement that after the accident he couldn’t continue his job as a theatre nurse because his fine motor skills have been severely affected. He has problems with his sight and hearing, suffering from constant pain in his legs, neck, shoulder, back and hip. He also has flashbacks and nightmares about the crash.
