Kiflay Abera
Kiflay Abera is a 64-year-old taxi driver from Auckland who was involved in a tragic incident that resulted in the death of a pedestrian, identified as McEwen. After pleading guilty to careless driving causing death, Abera was initially sentenced to 230 hours of community work and an 18-month driving disqualification. He recently appealed to the High Court to reduce his disqualification period, which was subsequently lowered to one year, reflecting his lack of prior convictions and his difficult financial circumstances as a taxi driver. Abera has expressed remorse for the incident and has engaged in restorative justice with the victim's family.
