Drink-drive paramedic who killed cyclist sentenced to five years and four months in jail Robert Woodruff drank ten pints before veering across the road, fatally striking 56-year-old father of five Richard Goodwin cycling
An off-duty paramedic has been sentenced to five years and four months in prison after fatally striking a cyclist with his car while double the legal drink-drive limit.
On the A1033 between the villages of Patrington and Ottringham in East Yorkshire, Woodruff veered across the road, striking cyclist Richard Goodwin, who had been riding home from a barbecue on the rural road. According to witnesses, Woodruff had tailgated another driver in the moments before the collision, and had narrowly avoided driving into an oncoming car while attempting an overtake.
