COPS are offering a £5,000 reward in the hunt for a driver of a BMW who smashed into a mum pushing her baby.
The horror crash happened as Rajdeep Kaur, 37, was walking with her daughter, who was aged 13 months, in a pram in February this year.

As she walked across London’s North Hyde Lane, a BWM crossed the centre line travelling the wrong way and collided with her – throwing the mum several feet into the air.
She was left fighting for her life with leg and pelvic injuries as the BMW took off.
Rajdeep remained in hospital for many months, while police still hunted for the BMW’s driver.
The 37-year-old has been left with mobility issues and now cannot care for her young baby on her own or walk more than a few steps unassisted.
Cops are now urging anyone who has information on the driver of the BMW to come forward.
Detective Constable Davina Nash, who has been leading the investigation, said: “This is a very distressing case. Mrs Kaur thankfully survived but has sustained injuries that will change her life forever. It was only fortunate that her 13-month daughter was not hurt too.
“We believe the driver of the BMW is local to the Hounslow area and so someone will know who he or she is.
“If you have information about the driver or anything else that could secure justice for the victim, the charity Crimestoppers guarantee you will stay completely anonymous. They are available on the phone or via their website 24/7, 365 days a year.”
To be eligible for the reward or to ensure you stay completely anonymous, please contact Crimestoppers anonymously online at the Crimestoppers website (Crimestoppers-uk.org) or call the charity’s UK Contact Centre on 0800 555 111.
Alexa Loukas, London Regional Manager at charity Crimestoppers, said: “Our thoughts are very much with Mrs Kaur, a mother whose life will never be the same again due to her injuries.
“You may have heard something about the vehicle or driver involved but for whatever reason you haven’t yet shared what you know. We’re appealing directly to members of the community across Hounslow.
“If you have any information about this tragedy you can speak up and tell our charity what you know. Lots of people mistakenly think we are part of the police. We are completely independent and will never judge or ask for any of your personal details.
“What you tell us could help find some kind of justice for Mrs Kaur and her family and help make our streets safer for everyone.”
