    HKSAR v. LI YING WAI
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMA959/2009

    The appellant's conduct constituted careless driving because two seconds provided sufficient time to observe a stationary vehicle and stop; criticisms of the other driver do not constitute a defence, and on the facts the conviction is upheld while the fine is reduced to reflect lower-end mitigation.
