Accused convicted of dangerous driving causing bodily harm after speeding motorcycle struck pedestrian.
The accused was charged with dangerous driving causing bodily harm and criminal negligence causing bodily harm after his motorcycle collided with a left-turning vehicle and struck a pedestrian on the sidewalk.
Dash camera footage showed the accused speeding and weaving between vehicles, obscuring his view of the intersection.
The court found the accused's driving was a marked departure from the standard of care, resulting in a conviction for dangerous driving causing bodily harm.
However, the court acquitted the accused of criminal negligence, finding his actions did not amount to wanton or reckless disregard.
