Pensioner pleads guilty to causing death of Scarlett Rossborough (8) by careless driving
Briefly

In court, Lindsay, who pleaded guilty to causing the death of Scarlett Rossborough by careless driving, contended he was not challenging that his driving led to her death.
Defence counsel explained that Lindsay's case involved 'pedal misapplication,' where an elderly driver mistakenly presses the accelerator instead of the brake, and this will be included as evidence.
Following Scarlett's tragic passing, her school issued heartfelt tributes, describing her as 'a much-loved pupil' and expressing deep sorrow over the loss.
The court proceedings have set a trial date for the more serious charge of dangerous driving, scheduled for November 4, 2024.
