Mr Mason had been staying with a friend but stepped outside when he heard a "loud bang", Birmingham Crown Court heard. He waved his arms to try to get Kelly to stop but Mr Mason described the vehicle "hurtling" towards him. Miss Rashid said the incident had affected Mr Mason emotionally, changing him from someone who had been self-confident to nervous.
