[2011] EWCA Crim 2151

A driver's words to the effect that anyone who was in his way would get run over were evidence of his aggressive intent sufficient to found a conviction under the Offences against the Person Act 1861 s.18 after he had run over a pedestrian, notwithstanding that the driver had had no specific intention against the victim in particular.
