Documents from Northampton Magistrates’ Court revealed another driver involved in the collision suffered a head injury, in the form of a subdural haematoma, multiple lacerations to his face and body, and bruising as their car was shunted into others waiting at lights.

Mundy, aged 51, of Meadow View, Pottersbury, elected trial by jury and was remanded on unconditional bail until June 28 ahead of a hearing at Northampton Crown Court.
