Glasgow Sheriff Court<\/a> this week after she pleaded guilty to causing serious injury to Mr Aksu and one passenger by dangerous driving.\n<\/p>\n\n She also admitted to colliding with three cars and a lamppost while carrying two passengers.\n<\/p>\n
\n Her lawyer stated: “She has very limited recollection of events because she consumed a concerning amount of alcohol. She had been drinking for six hours at that point and was in a state of intoxication.\n<\/p>\n
\n “I couldn\u2019t say why she decided to get in the vehicle. This is very much out of character for her but she has had minor traffic violations before.\n<\/p>\n
\n “She is very much against the idea of getting behind the wheel once having consumed alcohol.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The solicitor also explained that Milligan lost her job as a result of the incident.\n<\/p>\n
\n He added that his client is apologetic and understands the gravity of the offence.\n<\/p>\n
\n Sheriff Colette Gallagher said: “I was quite astonished when I heard the narration. I am concerned you didn\u2019t stop when you collided with the first car.\n<\/p>\n
\n “You are fortunate that you and the children were not seriously harmed. No doubt this has a significant impact on them, this is a very serious matter indeed.\n<\/p>\n
\n “It passes the custody threshold. You had children in the car.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Milligan was sentenced to a community payback order and placed under supervision for two years.\n<\/p>\n
\n She was also ordered to pay Mr Aksu \u00a31200 and complete 300 hours of unpaid work within 12 months.\n<\/p>\n
\n Finally, she was disqualified from driving for 38 months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cheryl Milligan was at the Louden Tavern on March 16 this year, watching a football game and drinking.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":508643,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7826],"tags":[748,918,4884,712,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-508642","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-glasgow","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-glasgow","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-scotland","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115393505709477879","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508642","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=508642"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508642\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/508643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=508642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=508642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=508642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
