The High Court affirmed the Magistrate: eyewitness testimony and video showed the accused made a U-turn and drove against traffic, the defence explanation of mechanical failure was implausible given repair documentation and testimony, and therefore the prosecution proved recklessness under s41(1) RTA 1987 beyond reasonable doubt; the sentence was not manifestly excessive and was upheld.
