For Dangerous Driving in Mitcham
Christian Tabis, 20 of Brentford was
sentenced last Friday to six months imprisonment at Kingston Crown Court having
pleaded guilty to dangerous driving. He was also disqualified from
driving for two years.
Tabis was driving an Audi A4 along Church Road, Mitcham on 20 September
2010 when he was in collision with a 31-year old woman as she crossed
the road. At the time of the collision he was overtaking a stationary
car and bus, was the wrong side of a keep left traffic island and
driving in excess of the speed limit.
Detective Sergeant John Hartfree, from the Metropolitan Police Service's
Road Death Investigation Unit, said: "The sentence given to Tabis sends
out a clear message to anyone who drives dangerously. This is a very sad
case, the victim, a 31-year old woman from Mitcham received very serious
injuries and has not recovered from this incident. She requires ongoing
treatment."
