Says over-taking driver on wrong side of the road who killed a cyclist:

A rather combative stance, I suppose.
The former parish church bell ringer said she had not seen the cyclists coming from the other direction when she overtook, and thought there was 'sufficient room' to make the manoeuvre.
Measures said she was 'surprised' to see Mr Pontin and his girlfriend coming towards her as she rounded the curve in the road - but felt they still had enough room to get past.
'I don’t know why I didn’t see them,' she said.
'I had to make a decision of what to do. I felt the safest decision was to continue straight ahead because they were in single file.
'If I had been concerned, I would have stopped suddenly.'
Mr Pontin had earlier told the jury he saw Measures make a 'stupid manoeuvre' in front of them on a bend in the A415.
Describing the moment the oncoming car overtook the cyclists on the opposite side of the road, he said: 'I just couldn’t believe the person driving had overtaken at that point.'
