The appeal was allowed and the custodial sentences were quashed because the court found the offending did not amount to a wanton course of dangerous driving warranting immediate imprisonment given significant mitigation (guilty plea, genuine remorse, lack of antecedents, assistance to the injured officer, and suitability for community service); a community service order of 200 hours plus fines and unchanged driving disqualification was substituted as a proportionate sentence.
