BMW driver killed road worker in horrific crash

A driver killed a road worker called out to help at an earlier crash scene in Dumbarton.

Norbert Kas lost control of his high-powered BMW and hit Neil Farr and his Amey Highways colleagues on the A82 at the Lomondgate roundabout.

Mr Farr ended up trapped under the 46 year-old joiner's car.

The 59-year-old dad-of-two sadly didn't survive the crash.

Mr Farr's four workmates from the road maintenance firm were also badly hurt.

First offender Kas recently appeared in the dock at the High Court in Glasgow.

He pleaded guilty to a charge of causing death by careless driving.

Kas, of Johnstone, Renfrewshire, had his bail continued and he is due to be sentenced next month.

The tragic incident occurred on May 9 2022.

Earlier that day, a Mercedes driver had lost control of his car at the same roundabout and hit a light column which fell on impact.
