The defendant was convicted of stunt driving under the Highway Traffic Act.
The Crown sought imprisonment of 30 days and a 30-day licence suspension, or alternatively a fine of $8,000-$10,000 with a 6-month suspension.
The defence sought the minimum fine of $2,000.
The court imposed a fine of $2,500 with 240 days to pay and no licence suspension, considering the defendant's personal circumstances, the absence of actual harm, the novelty of the conviction, and the essential role of truck drivers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
