The appellant was convicted of dangerous driving causing bodily harm and failing to remain at the scene after engaging in a high-speed street race that resulted in a severe collision.
He appealed his convictions, arguing errors in the dismissal of his s. 11(b) Charter application, the admission of his police statement, and the jury instructions.
He also appealed his 15-month custodial sentence, arguing for a conditional sentence.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the conviction appeal, finding no errors in the trial judge's rulings or jury instructions.
The sentence appeal was also dismissed, as the custodial sentence was deemed fit given the serious aggravating factors, including the appellant's efforts to conceal his involvement.
