Family and Court Response

Court heard that Sidhu had prior speeding penalties and had worked more than 26 hours, including 16 hours driving, before the crash. Victims and relatives gave impact statements. Paul’s husband, Mitchell Islam, described tracking her device to a closed road and learning of her death when police arrived.

Driver’s Apology

Sidhu, a father of two, expressed remorse in court and acknowledged the lasting pain caused. The judge noted Sidhu’s lack of a criminal record but said his speeding history and dangerous driving in a construction area warranted the sentence.
