OFF-duty police officers witnessed a speeding Kenworth truck collide with the rear of another big rig, then attempt to overtake, causing the driver of an oncoming truck to veer off the Cunningham Highway to avoid a head-on.
A decade later, that incident and other more recent offences were finalised by Ipswich Magistrateâs Court, when Dean Willett was sentenced and fined this week.
The long haul truck driver revealed he had been jailed in NSW for separate driving offences.
Dean George Willett, 48, from Corowa in NSW, pleaded guilty in Ipswich Magistrates Court to driving a prime-mover without due care and attention on the Cunningham Highway on July 18, 2008.
