A court of appeal will rule on 27 April on the case of a 38-year-old Asian driver convicted over a crash on Al Mahzoura Avenue that killed a 26-year-old Arab woman and hurt her young son.
The lower court jailed him for one year and ordered his deportation after he serves the term.
Prosecutors said he caused the crash through negligence, leading to the woman’s death, injuries to the child, and damage to property.
Care
They said he drove without due care and in a way that put people on the road in danger.
The crash happened at about 3.05am on Sunday, 30 November.
The driver told a traffic policeman he was travelling west along Al Mahzoura Avenue at between 60 and 70km/h in the left lane.
He said there was no car ahead of him in any lane, a vehicle was behind him in the right lane, and nothing blocked his view.
