The sentencing judge lawfully applied established sentencing principles, accepted expert reconstruction and evidence that the appellant failed to check the vehicle's fisheye mirror and thereby struck a 90‑year‑old pedestrian causing amputation; the appellant's degree of culpability and the severity of harm justified a short immediate custodial sentence (three‑week starting point reduced by one‑third to two weeks); there was no material misdirection or undue weighting of factors and the appeal is dismissed.
