A young man has gone on trial accused of causing the death of a teenage student by driving carelessly on a north-east road.
Christopher Huntington is alleged to have killed 19-year-old Benjamin Land as he was crossing the road by driving a Vauxhall Corsa without due care and attention.
Prosecutors also allege that just one year after the fatal crash Huntington drove dangerously on the same road, forcing another motorist to swerve out of the way to avoid colliding with him.
Huntington, of 13 Westfield Gardens, Aberdeen went on trial at the city’s sheriff court this morning. He denies both charges against him.
