A WOMAN who was hit by a drink-driver has told of how he drove off ‘leaving her like roadkill’.

Andrew Keeble, 49, of Avenue Parade, Accrington, hit pedestrian Terri Addison after she got out of a taxi in Burnley Road, Accrington, at around 1am on March 17 last year.

Miss Addison suffered a lacerated liver, fractures to her spine and damage to her arm and leg.

She was left with a scar above her right eye and needed surgery to remove a tooth because her jaw was displaced.

CCTV showed Keeble hit Miss Addison as she crossed the road into his path after getting out of a taxi.

She was sent flying and left lying in the road.

He reversed back to where she was lying, looked at her and then drove off, driving around her prone body.

Keeble pleaded guilty to driving while over the legal alcohol limit, driving without insurance and failing to stop after an accident.

Blackburn Magistrates' Court heard that Keeble had been convicted twice previously for drink driving in 2009 and 2015.

Miss Addison, 31, said: "I feel like I was left like roadkill, a piece of meat in the road and not a human body.

“I am lucky to be alive and my mum said someone must have been looking out for me that night.

“I was in a wheelchair at first which was difficult because I am a single parent of a five-year-old boy.

“I had to force myself to get back on my feet for his sake.

“It’s not the collision that bothers me, accidents happen, but I keep looking at the CCTV footage and asking how he could do what he did.

“He reversed back, looked at me lying in the road and then drove off.”

Keeble was sentenced to three months in prison, suspended for 18 months and banned from driving for four years.
