Man convicted after fatal accident on E18 – news Vestfold and Telemark – Local news, TV and radio



A man in his late 20s has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison after a fatal accident on the E18 in Oslo on 23 August 2023, writes VG. A total of four people were involved in the accident. 15-year-old Antoni Tomaszewski from Stavern lost his life when the car ran off the road and ended up on the roof. The police tried to stop the car several times before the accident, because it was driving too fast. According to one of the passengers who testified in court, the driver did not have a driving licence. He didn’t want to stop for the police because he was going to get his driver’s license back soon. The speed must have been up to 250 kilometers per hour, according to the passenger. “The court believes that there are no mitigating circumstances of importance in the case. The defendant has pleaded guilty and expresses remorse and shame, and he is having a very difficult time after the accident,” says the judgment from the Oslo district court.
