The court's observations came on an appeal filed by a truck driver challenging his conviction and two years' sentence by a magisterial court in a 14-year-old rash and negligent driving case which resulted in the death of a scooter rider coming from an opposite direction.
"Any person driving a vehicle on the road is supposed to respect the rights of others, using the road. He is supposed to have complete control over his vehicle and is required to drive on the correct side and not to intrude upon the space meant for traffic coming from the opposite direction," additional sessions judge Kanwal Jeet Arora said
The court, while dismissing the appeal regarding his conviction, also said the "duty of driver of a vehicle becomes more onerous while driving the vehicle on a single road".
The court, however, reduced the two-year jail term awarded to Bharat Singh to one-year sentence and imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 taking into account that he was 50-year-old and now physically challenged. It added that he has faced the agony of a protracted trial.
