Learner Driver who killed three friends in Crash
Learner driver who killed three friends in crash
Jake Loy, 19, lost control of his
Honda Civic and smashed into another car just after midnight on the A711 in
Dumfries, Scotland, after taking it out on a public road for the first time,
without any supervision required by a provisional
driving licence.
His three 16-year-old passengers –
Tyler Johnston, Ian Cannon and Finlay Johns – were killed in the crash on March
16 2022. The three occupants of the other vehicle and Loy were seriously
injured.
The court heard
the other driver had been adhering to the 60mph speed limit and although Loy’s
speed was “unknown”.
A judge heard how Ian had posted a message in a group social media chat before the crash that he was “scared” in the vehicle and that Loy was a “terrible driver”.
Ian Cannon, Finlay Johns and Tyler
Johnston, all 16 years old, were killed in the crash
Sentencing him to four years and
eight months imprisonment,
Judge Lord Drummond said: “Not only were you unqualified, you had no real
familiarity with this car or its characteristics at speed or under adverse
conditions.
“Your driving at the time of the
collision formed part of a more prolonged and deliberate course of bad or
aggressive driving with a disregard for the danger being caused to others.
“The victim impact statements all
bear witness to the terrible devastation you caused to the lives of their
family members of those you injured. This sentence cannot alleviate their
anguish.”
Loy, of Moffat, Dumfries shire, was
also disqualified from driving for eight years and must sit the extended test
before he is able to drive again.
He showed no emotion as he was led to
the cells. Family members in the public gallery were seen crying after the
judge had concluded his sentencing.
Donald Findlay KC, defending, told
the court that his client has “simply no memory” of the incident. He said: “Loy
is distressed by what happened and the consequences to his friends.
“It is telling and quite moving to me
when he said that if he could take their place he would. He would rather it be
him. There is very clear and strong evidence of what is known as survivor’s
guilt. There was no badness nor malice or intent of any kind.”

What Does Flashing Headlights Mean When Driving

- Drivers on main road,
sometimes flash at pedestrians waiting to cross road. This sort of
situation arises when driver is some distance away from pedestrian and
he/she feel that if they slow down, there would be enough time for
pedestrian to cross road and they will be able to continue driving without
having to stop.
- A driver approaches slowly
and is waiting at middle of junction, looking for safe gap in on coming
vehicles before turning right or waiting near central line wanting to turn
right. On coming vehicles may flash, alerting you that you may cross.
- Waiting in queue behind
another driver who is not responding to moving traffic or signal change
and here Flashing your headlamp to alert driver ahead to move on.
- You are overtaking another vehicle
and often drivers flash their light to alert the vehicle you are
overtaking.
- Sometime driver on dual
carriageway, motorway, who are driving fast, would flash at cars in right
lane so that they can move over to left lane.
- You are approaching meet situation
on road, ie road narrows due other vehicles parking or road work. Here those
driving often flash to on coming traffic to alert them that you have seen
them, and they can continue to deal with this narrow road, while you will
hold back. This situation requires extra CARE because sometimes drivers
will flash to warn you that they are already committed and they want you
to slow down so that everyone is safe driving .
