Father Throws Chair At Judge After She Give Driver Who Killed His Child And Grandparents 120 Hours Of Community Service

GOOGLE TRANSLATE- Deadly traffic accident on the 19th of May, 2013 in the town of Meijel, in which two cyclists and their 2-year-old granddaughter lost their lives. The court finds that it is proven that the suspect acted in such a way that he was unable to retain control of his vehicle at all times, his vehicle started lurching and crossed the center line of the road, the suspect attempted to countersteer and in doing so crashed through the roadside and the beech hedge, ending up on the bicycle lane, where he collided with the three victims.

However, the court finds that there is insufficient proof that the suspect lost control of his vehicle and started lurching due to recklessly speeding. Therefore the court finds that there is no proven ''guilt'' in the sense of criminal law; Article 6 of the Dutch Road and Traffic Law. The court does find however that violation of Article 5 of the Dutch Road and Traffic Law is proven, therefore the court sentences the suspect to 120 hours of community service and a conditional license suspension for the duration of 1 year with a probation period of 2 years.

Article 6 of Dutch Road and Traffic Law All participants in traffic are forbidden to behave in such a way that a traffic accident attributable to them occurs in which another person is killed or sustains serious physical injury or physical injury such that temporary illness occurs or that person is prevented from engaging in normal activity.

Article 5 of Dutch Road and Traffic Law It is an offense for any road user to act in such a manner as to cause a hazard (or a potential hazard) on the public highway or to obstruct other road users in any way.

As this specific case involves a foreign person (polish) and two grandparents and their 2 year old granddaughter being killed, people would react to this very emotionally, regardless of the sentence.
