The magistrate's credibility and factual findings were rational and supported by the evidence; she did not base conviction on a 'not proven' principle but on the sole reasonable inference available from the uncontradicted evidence that the appellant's driving fell below the standard of a careful driver; the appellant's decision not to give evidence or call witnesses justified drawing an adverse inference; conviction was therefore safe and is affirmed.
