"A fine as it was an 'accident' - my brakes failed and I was unable to stop despite evidence showing I was below the speed limit and the man was on top of his car in front of me high on drugs and slipped down the boot right in front of me." Is there an engineer's report to say the brakes failed... and not due to insufficient maintenance? Cal | |||

"Depends what factors were involved, were you drinking, was it dark or light, what were the weather conditions, how did you hit him, what was he doing standing behind his car, what type of road was it on?

" If he was loading a trailer then I assume he was in a layby or on the side of the road, it's a parked third party vehicle and it's a person that's been hit. What type of road was it on (speed limit for the road) any other factors, driver on a phone. It's too bloody vague, but if cps had enough evidence to bring it to court and for it to be actually found guilty then there's gonna be stuff you aren't telling us. What court was it magistrates or crown, guilty in crown is beyond all reasonable doubt, guilty in magistrates is a balance of probabilities so it's a bit easier to be found guilty in magistrates. Not enough information for me I'm afraid to determine the sentence. | |||

"Can I just check that you weren;t the driver? And if you were the victim or connected to them then has the driver been sentenced already? Because this thread could be contempt of court if you or someone else is awaiting sentencing" I don't drive and if I did wouldn't hit my father ffs!!!

Daytime. Visibility for at least 300m prior to crash site " A clearway is a road with restrictions of stopping. What type of road is it, 300 metres is a long way which suggests a dual carriageway which promys the question why was the driver loading there? How safe was it to stop? Sentencing could well reflect that | |||

"There will be a whole court case with full evidence to decide the sentence. BUT it won't satisfy anyone. The driver who killed my wife got a 3 month driving ban and few hundred fine, and had the nerve to appeal against it. " There was and, as you well know, satisfaction is way off. I'm sorry for your loss | |||

"OP, I'm sorry for what happened to your dad, but you have given us a tiny snippet of information and are asking us to be judge and jury. We can't do that unless we are in possession of all the facts which were presented at court. You either need to give a details description of what happened or just tell us what offence the driver was convicted of and what sentence they got. " See above. I was wondering what you lot would think was fitting. Which is what I asked. And I have given quite a bit of info. | |||

I was wondering what you lot would think was fitting. Which is what I asked. And I have given quite a bit of info. " Well not quite. Two things I would need to know are 1) Why the driver failed to stop in time and 2) What injuries did the victim receive. Also, do we know if the defendant made some admission of guilt which meant they were offered a reduced sentence? You're asking laymen to do the job of learned professionals. Personally, if I was unhappy with a sentence I'd be seeking advice regarding an appeal. From a proper solicitor though. | |||

"Okay, imagine you were the driver. You are driving along a main thoroughfare, breaking no laws. You see a vehicle in front of you indicating to turn right, That vehicle is obscuring the view ahead. When it completes it's Vandoeuvre you realise it was infact indicating to overtake a stationary vehicle. You brake but too late and collide with a pedestrian stood behind the stationary car. What do you think should be the appropriate punishment?" That's my question to you lot | |||

We still don't know what happened to the pedestrian but I would assume life changing if not life threatening injuries. I hope that some sense of closure can be found in the civil courts. At least it has been established that the driver isn't completely blameless. | |||
