A repeat drunk driver who struck a motorcycle and left its two critically injured riders lying on the pavement in Newtown as he fled the scene will serve less than a year in jail.The driver, Timothy Alan Tate, 50, entered guilty pleas to charges of vehicular assault and tampering with evidence. He was ordered by Circuit Court Judge Bart Stanley to serve 360 days of a 10-year sentence, pay $5,646 to the state criminal injuries compensation fund, make restitution to both victims and lose his driver license.The remaining 14 charges against him including crimes such as fourth-offense DUI, failure to render aid, leaving the scene of an accident with injury, reckless endangerment, failure to yield and failure to report an accident, were dismissed as part of the plea bargain.Tate faced the felony counts after he pulled his Nissan into the path of an oncoming motorcycle driven by Wade Sims in front of Newtown Foodland on Nashville Highway. The crash happened in October.
