An ‘idiotic’ off-duty paramedic had 10 pints of Guinness before ploughing into a cyclist as he drove to a house party.

Robert Woodruff, 36, said he made ‘unforgivable mistakes’ when he hit Richard Goodwin, 56, with his car

Woodruff’s wife begged him not to drive to a colleague’s barbecue seven miles away, which he wanted to attend despite ‘not being invited’, Hull Crown Court had heard. His body was carried on the windscreen for about 70 metres, before being flung into the air and later discovered in undergrowth. Mr Goodwin’s youngest son Oliver Goodwin, 19, remembered his father as his ‘best friend who never failed to make him laugh and feel safe’.
