 each, so they are very very serious. And the driving with excess breath alcohol charge is also something that is serious, and you could go to jail for 12 months on that charge.

a
ttention from doctors in relation to their injuries, and I will deal with those later. The complainants have also indicated that they have been off work due to the accident. Demi is less injured, but Christiana is not able to work and not able to walk pro
perly yet. Demi's father made a statement to the Probation Service. He said he was disappointed with the way the system worked, that is in relation to the Police. However, that should not be taken into account in your sentence \endash 
 that is a matter for the Police. But all the victims say they do not want you to go to jail.
