An intoxicated driver who's been described as the 'drunkest driver' a police officer has ever seen mounted the kerb and killed a 'lovely' 20-year-old student. Shocking footage shows the moment Malcolm Waite, 68 was pulled over by police in a Lexus RX SUV after he ran over and killed Fenella Hawes who was delivering a bouquet of sunflowers to her mum.
The court heard that on July 31 at around 4:30pm Waite had been driving a Lexus RX SUV along the A419 Wayford Road between B1159 Junction and Chapel Field Road when he mounted the kerb and hit two pedestrians. The two victims were a teenage girl and 20-year-old Fenella who was killed. Approximately four hours after driving into Fenella and the teenage girl, it was discovered while he was in custody at Great Yarmouth Police Investigation Centre that he had 120 micrograms of alcohol in his breath. Officers calculated that this would have been around 158 micrograms if taken at the time of the crash with the legal limit being 35 micrograms per ml.
"I sob because I will never see Fenella again, I will never see her radiant smile or hear her laugh, I will never talk with her about her day or about her plans for the future, I will never help cheer her up when she is sad or gossip with her, I will never go on long walks with her again… "I never had a chance to say goodbye.” Following the sentencing, Detective Inspector David McCormack, of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: "This is a tragedy, and it was wholly avoidable.
