A compensation up to £1million is being sought by a woman who was injured in an accident at go-karting venue.
The incident took place when Julie Markie was working as a school teacher and was on a school trip with a group of pupils. They were visiting an indoor karting venue operated by the firm Driveflight under the trading name Kartstart.
According to reports, in order to check on one of her pupils Mrs Markie had gone to the trackside when another pupil exited the race track at speed. Mrs Markie was caused serious injury when the kart entered the pit area.
As a consequence of the accident, Mrs Markie suffered an injury to her foot which has left her with a scar and a limp, along with a mild brain injury and post traumatic stress disorder.
Now, the reports claim that she is seeking accident compensation from the karting company who she blames for the accident.
The case is expected to be heard some time next year.
