AI-generated summary
Murray Matthew Sulman, 49, died from multiple blunt trauma injuries sustained in a motor vehicle crash on 17 December 2017. He attempted to cross South Arm Highway from a side road at approximately 21 km/h into the path of a vehicle travelling at 92 km/h (32 km/h over the 60 km/h speed limit). The other driver had no time to brake. While Mr Sulman's decision to cross involved unacceptable risk, the excessive speed of the other vehicle was the major cause—had the other driver been travelling at the speed limit, Mr Sulman's vehicle would have cleared the lanes. The crash was not preventable through medical intervention; it was a fatal traffic incident investigated by police and resulting in criminal charges.
