Unlikely. He did have to plead guilty and he got a penalty that’s much worse than you’d think from simply reading “avoids jail”. Lighter than it should be, and lighter than it would be if a car wasn’t involved for sure, but still not as light as the headline is likely to leave the average person thinking.
I didn’t say I was expecting this exact sentence. I said it’s “exactly as light” as I imagined. How hard is it to read?
House arrest with the ability to continue working (so leaving the house during work hours) is pretty common. Really not that hard to guess this was the “lighter than jail” sentence. Same with supervision. And yes, it’s ridiculously light for causing permanent injury.
Next: the driver successfully sues the cyclist for causing him trauma.
Like that incident in Belgium. Literally sued the family of the cyclist they killed while under the influence of marihuana
You scratched my status symbol

“He was instead given a two-year supervision order and ordered to stay indoors between 7pm and 7am.”
Ya that really isn’t that bad for leaving someone with a life altering injury and nearly killing them
That’s exactly as light as I imagined. No idea what Zagorath is talking about.
You seriously thought the guy got a sentence involving house arrest for 12 hours every day? Come off it. Don’t lie.
