Hashim Aziz was driving at over three times the speed limit to “impress his cousins” when his Audi A3 crashed into Baljinder Kaur Moore’s Vauxhall Corsa in West Midlands, in November last year, the Mirror reported.
Baljinder, 32, was on her way to pick up her husband from his brother’s home, and she was driving at 62 mph.
The Wolverhampton Crown Court heard that two witnesses had spotted Aziz flying past them “in excess of 100mph” before they heard “loud bangs”.
“He accepts full responsibility for what was a catastrophic accident. He simply shouldn’t have been travelling anywhere near that speed,” Aziz’s defence counsel, Adam Morgan, said.
During his sentencing at Wolverhampton Crown Court on Tuesday, Aziz expressed “full remorse” for the crash.
