Because the appellant had bound himself by agreed facts under s.65C that the safe following distance at his speed was 57.22 m, the Magistrate was entitled to compare the agreed required distance with the actual distance and find that, combined with excessive speed, the manner of driving created an obvious and serious risk amounting to recklessness; the appellate court will not disturb that factual finding.
