This is of course one of the most serious of the driving offences.
If you are facing a prosecution for this offence, you will inevitably be interviewed by the police in a very formal interview at the police station. It is extremely important to have someone there with you with knowledge of the procedures and interview tactics and techniques to ensure that you are fully prepared for the interview.
Your interview with the police can have an enormous impact in the proceedings against you.
Prosecutions of this nature will ultimately take place at the Crown Court and there is a substantial burden on the Prosecution to prove that you caused the death by the manner of your driving i.e. it fell far below the standard of a competent driver; they may also convict you if they find your driving was the substantial cause of death. This offence carries a maximum sentence of ten years imprisonment and of course disqualification from driving for a substantial period.
So, if you have been involved in an incident where a death has occurred or the police may suspect you have been, can you afford not to talk to someone about it? Why not contact us and speak with one of our solicitors?
