A speeding driver who hit and killed a beloved mum in a high speed crash didn't stop to help because his turban had 'flown off faced South Australian District Court on Wednesday charged with one count of aggravated causing death by dangerous driving Christine Sandford, 40, was minutes from home in Adelaide's Windsor Gardens when Singh's Ford Mustang T-boned her vehicle in March 2023 She had been on the way home from a nearby service station to buy cooking oil when her life was cut short Singh had continually denied causing Ms Sandford's death and initially pleaded not guilty Singh earlier this month pleaded guilty and admitted he was driving 45km/h over the speed limit he was warned by the judge on Wednesday that he will likely be taken into custody following case submissions next week The court heard that Singh had been driving at high speed ranging between 150 to 161km/h moments before the crash, The Advertiser reported.  The prosecution told the court that it was 'clearly the Crown's case' that Singh made no attempt to help Ms Sandford at the scene.  Singh's lawyer said his client may not have rendered Ms Sandford's assistance as he was in a state of shock and had lost his turban in the crash. 'He was in a state of shock, as a Sikh, where it's almost like being naked in public, that exacerbated the situation,' his lawyer explained. Judge Muscat said it was difficult to understand a person's reaction after such a horrific event, especially since people are often in shock and 'don't know how to react'. However, the judge added it would not help Singh as he had told police he was travelling at the speed limit when he was questioned after the crash.  Ms Sandford's daughter Taniesha submitted a heartbreaking victim impact statement, which was read out on Wednesday.  Taniesha said a huge part of her life was 'ripped away' following her mum's death. 'The weight of her absence is something I struggle to carry every day. I used to feel safe, I am constantly filled with anxiety now that I live with the deep awareness that the people you love can be taken from you in an instant,' she said. 'I constantly think about how she won't help me move into my new home, or stand by my side on my wedding day. 'She won't be here to see my children. They'll never get to meet their grandmother. She is missing from every milestone I imagine sharing with her. I spent my 21st birthday without her.' Singh will reappear face South Australian District Court next week for further submissions before sentencing.  Major terror attack 'was just HOURS away' before it was foiled by the special forces and police:...

highest level in a dozen years last week but there are still service stations selling well below today’s average ULP price The real-time fuel pricing feature on our myRAA app showed an average Adelaide ULP price of 170.3c/l on Monday afternoon However 16 outlets were still charging below a 150c/l according to the price list on the myRAA app A saving of greater than 20c/l means a difference of more than $10 when filling the tank of a typical family sedan RAA spokesman Mark Borlace said motorists who weren’t using an app to find the cheapest fuel prices were probably losing money at the pump “This is especially the case when prices begin to spike – like last week when some outlets went to 189.9c/l the highest peak price we have seen since 2009,’’ he said “We surveyed 600 myRAA app users in July and found they were saving an average $28.10 a month – or $337.20 a year – by comparing prices charged at various service stations before filling up.’’ Mr Borlace said a record number of motorists accessed the real-time fuel pricing feature on myRAA app last month “Prices have been rising significantly this year and there’s no doubt this is putting pressure on household budgets,’’ he said We recently compiled a list of the cheapest fuel outlets based on the average price charged for ULP since the introduction of real-time fuel pricing scheme introduced by the State Government in

nothingTom Bowden BREAKING into the property market can be tough and take years of careful saving It’s not like someone is just going to give you a free house Windsor Gardens property through Harcourts Magill to subdivide and figured and usually in that case we would have a figure that we would have allowed to demolish the house level the block and get it all cleared ready for subdivision,’’ he said “I was chatting to a friend and he said ‘why don’t you just list it on Gumtree and someone might take it away for you?’ “It’s a bit of a win-win for me because obviously we’ve allowed a figure to demolish it and level the block But if someone wants it and they can organise the logistics of getting it cut in half and transporting it to wherever they want then we’ve had a win because we haven’t had to outlay that expense to get rid of it Meanwhile the person getting the house can use however they want – set it up on a block Bridge said to have the home removed at someone else’s expense could save him up to $7,500 “Because it’s only a timber frame there’s not as much heavy earthmoving involved “So if we don’t have to spend that then we’ve had a little bit of a win — so that’s the method to the madness.” Bridge posted the Gumtree advertisement on Tuesday night describing it as the “perfect shack for a scrub block It has since attracted more than 1000 views and prior to purchase was being rented out for $250 per week “The kitchen is basic and the bathroom could do with a good makeover but the four main rooms are fine,” Bridge said Bridge said relocation of the home should be a straightforward process it’s fairly easy to just cut it in half and transport it in two halves on a low-loader semi and then someone can set it up wherever they choose,” Bridge said People pay money for houses worse than this The home can only be taken away after May 22 when Mr Bridge takes settlement of the property and after electricity has been disconnected from the home he hadn’t yet worked out how he would decide who would get the house “Some people will probably shake their head and think it’s too hard and too much work If it comes down to two or three parties that really want it then (it will go to) whoever wants to pay the most I guess that’s the only fair thing I can do Say hello to the Windsor Gardens Caravan Park which is one of the city’s best kept
