Driver swerves to wrong side of the road and kills a cyclist. A witness sees her on her phone.
The driver just says she can't remember what happened and the jury returns a not proven verdict.
I wonder what would have happened if this had been in England where you don't have the Not Proven option.
Also maybe an illustration of why death by dangerous driving often gets downgraded to careless driving when it hits court.
