He suddenly appeared in his car behind them
A family thought they were going to die after an angry driver swerved in front of them and attacked their car with a screwdriver. Mum Helen Webster, 50, of Sherwood, spoke as Vauxhall Insignia driver Steven Hind - the dad of her daughter's boyfriend - chased after them after leaving Rainworth on July 4, 2020.
Miss Webster drove them all to the Hind family home to collect a jumper and jewellery after Sam Hind had moved out. The court heard an argument began over ownership of the jumper, with Hind senior losing his temper and being abusive. "The feeling was I was afraid for my life and my daughter's and Sam's," said Miss Webster. "At the time this was happening, I accepted the car was going to be severely damaged. I thought, 'I hope he doesn't hit the front of the car, so I can carry on driving'.
His manner of driving that day was incorporated in the affray charge, but there was no driving ban for Hind or a restraining order - which the victims requested. Disappointed Miss Webster said the sentence for Hind seemed disproportionate to what happened and she feels let down by police and the justice system.
Martin Long, 44, of Carlton, told Nottinghamshire Live he gave police a statement after witnessing part of the incident on the A614 as he drove his Ford Galxy north to his mother's home with his wife and two young children in the car. "To us it seemed a very odd situation," he said. "Potentially it almost caused an accident and was obviously frightening for the children in their car".
