A Dublin lorry driver whose vehicle careered across a Co Antrim road killing a mother of three last March was fined £1,000 yesterday and banned from driving for two years.
Ballymena Crown Court heard that, since the accident, Paul Carberry (37) had been receiving counselling and could no longer drive a lorry.
Carberry, from Ballyfermot in Dublin, admitted causing the death of 31-year-old Mrs Fiona Mary Genovese on March 16th last year at Frosses Road near Cloughmills in Co Antrim.
Judge David Smyth said he could be lenient given Carberry's guilty plea to causing death by dangerous driving and his "clear remorse".
