    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMA368/2024

    On rehearing the court accepted the trial judge's credibility assessment and the unambiguous dashcam footage showing the appellant drove directly into the taxi's lane without adequate observation or turning; that conduct fell below the standard required by s38(1) Cap.374 and established careless driving beyond reasonable doubt, and the HK$1,500 fine was within the permissible and appropriate range, so the appeal on conviction and sentence is dismissed.
