Doesn't some form of contrition affect the possible sentence??

I seem to remember that some sentencing statements by the judge mention showing or not showing that they regretted what they did and/or showed no sorrow and just blamed others from the start?

I may be wrong - just asking

It does, but only to mitigate sentence - the lack of contrition cannot be an aggravating feature to increase sentence.

Looking at the videos of him driving before he was even in the crowded bit - just very busy

his driving was terrible - he didn;t hit anyone at that point but he was clearly entitled and felt he was more important than other people

I suspect that he drove like that a lot and it is only luck that had stopped him hitting people beforehand

IMO anyway - I could be wrong and he was a very normal driver before hand - in which case why did he suddenly flip?

I wouldn't be surprised if I later find out that he is guilty if hit and run incidents (they are not "accidents").
