A Dundee pensioner has been ordered to stand trial next month accused of causing the death of a woman after knocking her down with her car. Muriel Charman, 79, is alleged to have hit Pamela Cochrane, who was 78, with her Citreon C3. Mrs Cochrane was crossing Glamis Road near the junction with Dalrymple Terrace, and close to the Spar supermarket, in November 2019. Charman, of Glamis Gardens, is expected to appear at Dundee Sheriff Court on February 10, having pled not guilty at an earlier date. The pensioner is accused of having driven without due care and attention prior to striking Mrs Cochrane. She allegedly failed to observe Mrs Cochrane and failed to react to her presence on November 12 2019. Mrs Cochrane was rushed to Ninewells Hospital but died from her injuries the same day.
