Artist Yang Ming drove his car on the Majixian Gorge Road on the top of the mountain the year before and crossed the double white line before colliding with it.

He pleaded guilty to two counts of careless driving and poorly lit windows, and was sentenced to 18 days in jail and suspended for two years.

He appealed the sentence earlier. His lawyer pointed out that there was no evidence that Yang had drunk alcohol in the case. He also said that "no one is at fault." He hoped that the court would give Yang another chance.

Judge Chen Zhongheng read out the ruling today (22nd) to dismiss Yang's appeal. The appeal was dismissed and Yang must be imprisoned for 18 days immediately.


Chen Guan pointed out in his judgment that the evidence for the crime of careless driving in the case was overwhelming, and Yang's repeated pleas and defenses showed that his remorse was only mediocre.

Chen Guan also pointed out that the magistrate of the original trial sentenced Yang to 18 days' imprisonment and a two-year license suspension. There was no principled error, and the sentence was not obviously excessive.


Yang will spend 3 holidays in prison

After learning the result, Yang remained calm. Today is the winter solstice, and together with Christmas and New Year's Day, Yang will spend time in prison.

In addition to his girlfriend Zhuang Siming, Zhuang Siming's sister, Zhuang Simin, also attended the court today.

The two also remained calm after learning the result.

Zhuang Siming and his sister originally wanted to enter the detention room on the sixth floor of the lower floor of the court to visit Yang, who had been detained, but they were refused entry because they were not lawyers. In the end, only one lawyer was able to enter.

The judge believes that the past sentence of Yang Qing did not serve as a warning

Chen Guan pointed out in his sentence that the judge of the original trial pointed out that Yang obviously did not learn from past cases. In 2005, Yang was also fined 7,000 yuan and suspended for 12 months for drinking and driving. In 2007, he was convicted of " "Criminal damage" was sentenced to 150 hours of community service order, and was ordered to pay 3,580 yuan in compensation and 2,100 yuan in legal costs.

In addition, Yang had fixed penalty records for speeding and using a mobile phone while driving in 2005.

Chen Guan believes that obviously, the light sentences given to Yang by the court in the past, including the community service order, cannot effectively warn him that he can no longer drink and drive.

Past record not without risk of re-offending

Chen Guan also pointed out that the evidence for Yang’s crime of careless driving involved in this case is overwhelming. Yang’s repeated guilty pleas show that his remorse is mediocre. The evidence is not enough to convince the court to sentence Yang to probation.

Yang's past criminal and traffic conviction records also show that he is not without risk of recidivism.

In the end, it was decided to uphold the original judgment.
