Debra Christensen read her victim impact statement at the sentencing of the rider, Mitchell McIntyre, at the Auckland District Court today. CCTV footage shows the collision, and that Christensen was partially under the bus. There is no record of the speed in which McIntyre was travelling, but footage shows it was faster than walking pace, Judge Field said.
