Van driver sentenced over fatal smart motorway crash

Barry O'Sullivan, 45, has been sentenced to six months in jail, suspended for 12 months, after being convicted of causing death by careless driving for killing 68-year-old Pulvinder Dhillon on the M4 in Berkshire. The grandmother from London died when O'Sullivan's van hit her daughter's broken-down Nissan Micra, which caught fire. O'Sullivan was driving at 77mph without a seatbelt. The smart motorway's alert system had not been working for days before the crash, though prosecutors said any competent driver should have avoided the stationary vehicle.
