Ertug Direk pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing death and fail to stop at the scene of an accident causing death.
The court considered a joint submission of 4.5 years imprisonment.
Aggravating factors included the high speed, the offender's extensive criminal and driving record (including prior dangerous driving convictions), and the moral blameworthiness of fleeing the scene.
Mitigating factors included the guilty plea and surrender to police.
The court also considered harsh pre-sentence custody conditions and restrictive bail conditions for credit.
The judge accepted the joint submission for imprisonment but imposed a longer driving prohibition than sought by the defence.
