Center Parcs worker died when her work bike was hit at just 9mph by electric buggy driven by a colleague, inquest hears

A Center Parcs worker who was riding a bike without a helmet died when a colleague in an electric golf buggy bumped into her at just 9mph, an inquest has heard. 

Penny Bulpitt, 67, sustained a ‘devastating’ head injury after she was hit from behind on a one-way road at the holiday park in Woburn Forest, near Ampthill in Bedfordshire.

A bin lorry driver who witnessed the crash described how the housekeeping team leader ‘flew in the air’ despite the speed of the converted golf cart being ‘very slow’.

Maintenance worker John Davies said he didn’t have enough time to take ‘evasive action’
