- Court
- High Court
Given mandatory minimum and cumulative disqualification requirements under the Land Transport Act producing a 12-month floor, and considering the seriousness of the offending (flight from police, erratic high-speed driving, near-collision, crash), the total 18-month disqualification was within the permissible range and not manifestly excessive; appeal dismissed.
