Dangerous Driving Causing Accident

Charged with Dangerous Driving?

In the case of R v JOHNY GEORGE KURUVINAKUNNEL [2012] QCA 330; Her honour stated that, the following directions by trial judge lead the jury into erroneous reasoning:

“The prosecution must exclude beyond a reasonable doubt the possibility that the driving onto the incorrect side of the road by the defendant occurred independently of the exercise of the will because at the time he fell asleep momentarily and unexpectedly.”

And

“The prosecution do not have to prove that he intentionally drove onto the wrong side of the road. It has to prove that when he did that he was conscious”.

About AJ Faisal

I understand people who find themselves facing criminal charges. Most of them are just good people caught in tough situations or have had a disadvantaged life, and I see it as my job to stand by them and make sure their side of the story is told. That’s why I chose to be defence lawyer — not on the other side. Most importantly, just because you did something doesn’t necessarily mean you’re guilty or that what you did was unlawful.

 

Every case is different, and I believe every person deserves to be heard. I like to dig deep, look at things from all angles, and find details that others often miss. I’m creative and open-minded — because sometimes, thinking outside the box can make all the difference. I’ve been passionate about criminal defence since 2019.

 

Since then, I’ve worked on thousands of cases — each one teaching me something new about people, fairness, and second chances. What drives me most is helping clients move forward with confidence and peace of mind. Just give me a call, and you’ll find out that I’m not an ordinary lawyer.
