An angry BMW driver swerved into the path of an oncoming moped rider leaving him with horrific injuries because of bad blood between the two over an ex-girlfriend.
John Boyle-Matcham, 23, steered his father's car into the path of Jamie Clarke's Gilera Runner 125 scooter in Watford last year sending him flying through the air.
Boyle-Matcham was jailed for 13 years for the August bank holiday Monday crash, which one person described as looking 'like a war movie' when Mr Clarke's legs appeared to be almost 'severed'.
Mr Clarke, now 21, spent two weeks in intensive care being treated for brain seizures and fractures before spending a total of two months at St George's Hospital in Tooting.
He walks with a crutch and has limited movement to his right forearm and ankle, and is now awaiting a final prognosis.
