Individual sentences of 8 years imprisonment (NPP 5 years) for aggravated dangerous driving causing death under s 52A(2) of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW), partially accumulated to an effective total of 10.5 years (NPP 7.5 years), were upheld as within the sentencing range where the offender was well affected by alcohol, drove at double the speed limit, failed to stop at a stop sign, and left the scene without summoning help, resulting in two deaths. The upper limit of the sentencing range is the statutory maximum, not the highest sentence shown in Judicial Commission statistics.
