THE man who caused the death of a sales consultant two years ago
while test driving a sports car has finally been charged with
reckless driving.
Regan Lee Da Wen, 26, appeared at the Subordinate Court on Monday,
18 months after the fatal accident.
Lee was test-driving the high-performance Mazda MX-5 in October
2005 with sales agent 22-year-old Angela He Xueli seated beside
him.
He was travelling along Upper Paya Lebar Road towards Bartley Road
when he lost control of the vehicle.
The car hit a central road divider, crashing into a black BMW, then
flipping over and colliding into an oncoming mini-van.
The crash killed Ms He.
Lee was expressionless when the charge of reckless driving causing
death, was read to him.
Straits Times Interactive understands that civil suits have also
been filed against Lee by the victim's family and possibly other
parties.
Lee is now out on bail of $10,000.
If convicted under the Road Traffic Act, Lee could be jailed up to
5 years.
Speaking to Straits Times Interactive, Lee's lawyer, Julian Tay,
said his client has been haunted by the incident.
Mr Tay said he is unaware if Lee's license has been revoked but
said he knows that Lee is 'no longer driving'.
Lee's pre-trial conference has been set for June 18.
lets see how the trial goes, btw the lawyer for him is Julian
Tay, from Lee and Lee(i think)
