Prince Aibangbe’s dangerous-driving case was adjourned at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, with the next hearing set for 17 June 2020, as reported on 12 June 2020. He had pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing the death of Gerard Whyte at Swords Road on 31 May 2019. The adjournment was to clarify matters and provide colour photographs of the scene.

The court heard that Aibangbe said he mistakenly believed he had seen a green filter light before the collision. His employer contacted gardaí after receiving dashcam footage from another truck driver who witnessed the incident.

This report covers an earlier stage of the case. Later developments are not reported here.
