A P-PLATE driver who used her mobile phone behind the wheel 44 times before running down a cyclist near Koroit has been fined $4500 and lost her licence for nine months.

The cyclist suffered a spinal fracture which required surgery and placement in a spinal cage at Melbourne’s Austin Hospital. He was originally told he could be left a paraplegic and spent three months recovering.


He also suffered a broken big toe and lacerations to his head and body.

Even more stunning was Davis’ answers when interviewed by police two days after the accident and asked about using her phone.
“I just don’t care because I’ve already been through a lot of bull**** and my car is like pretty expensive and now I have to fix it,” she told a police officer.


“I’m kind of pissed off that the cyclist has hit the side of my car. I don’t agree that people texting and driving could hit a cyclist. I wasn’t on my phone when I hit the cyclist.”

4500 dollars. Unbelievable. And not even a life-long - at least ten years-long - ban from car driving although by character she obviously is totally unsuited to drive.

My girlfriend was killed by a freak like her. The sister of my mother, pregnant, and her husband, got killed by a freak like her, the whole family wiped out. Both freaks got away with cheap penalties - and causing more havoc with seriously injured people short time later - thanks to active assistance by the judges who almost provoked it and rated the interests of the killers as socially more relevant than justice done for the victims and those they left behind. On both cases, there were no prison penalties served, and the the financial penalty did not reach 10,000 D-Marks. The driving licenses, like in this case now, were given back after 9 months, and after 12 months.



A human life is not much worth to modern law.
