New legislation has been used for the first time in Scotland to jail a woman whose careless driving caused the death of a motorbike rider in Glasgow.

Lillian Martha Kenny, 43, admitted being responsible for the crash which killed Martin Swanson, 36, and seriously hurt his seven-year-old son.

At Glasgow Sheriff Court, Kenny was jailed for nine months.

The new laws cover cases where death is caused by driving carelessly or driving without a licence or insurance.
