Doctor cleared of road-rage charge

A doctor was cleared yesterday of using her top-of-the range Mercedes to ram a car in an alleged "road rage" attack.

Dr Catriona Bevan, 36, (left), was accused of ramming charity worker Peter Roberts, 27, after she was overtaken.

But a jury at Cardiff Crown Court found her not guilty of dangerous driving after she said Mr Roberts had reversed into her. Mr Roberts had told the court that Dr Bevan had deliberately rammed his car after pulling out in front of him as he drove home from work. He denied being prejudiced against women drivers.
