SINGAPORE - A driver of a lorry was jailed for two weeks and banned from driving for five years on Thursday for causing a pedestrian's death in a road traffic accident.
Chinese national Hou Xiaohai, 34, admitted to causing Ms Ang Soo Lan's death by failing to keep a proper lookout when making a right turn from Whampoa Road into Whampoa Drive at about 1.20pm on April 25 this year.
The 55-year-old died a day later in hospital from head injuries.
A district court heard that Hou was driving the lorry along the road, heading to Block 86 in Whampoa Drive to deliver furniture, when he stopped at the traffic junction.
