A court has heard that a biker was in a “bad” drunken state before a high-speed crash that resulted in the death of his passenger. The incident occurred when the biker lost control of his vehicle while traveling at a speed of approximately 100km/h. The court was told that the defendant’s intoxication significantly impaired his ability to operate the motorcycle safely, leading to the tragic collision.
The prosecution presented evidence highlighting the defendant’s excessive alcohol consumption prior to the crash. Witnesses described the biker’s erratic behavior and visible signs of intoxication before he got on the motorcycle. The court also heard that the passenger did not have any control over the vehicle or the circumstances leading to the accident, and their death was a direct result of the defendant’s actions.
The case underscores the serious consequences of driving under the influence and the potentially devastating impact on innocent lives. The court is expected to deliver its verdict, taking into account the severity of the defendant’s actions and the tragic outcome of the incident.
