“All her shopping was everywhere, I was asking what happened, if she was okay and she said she was hurt.
“I rang 999 and spoke to operators, did everything they told me to do and waited with her after getting blankets put over her.”
It is believed residents on the road are planning to set up a petition for a speed bump.
Jake added: “There’s a park over the road and people are always flying up and down it, and on bikes.
“So those that live in the area have been talking saying they want a speed bump for the road.”
