A Sydney woman accused of fatally hitting a cyclist and reversing over him didn't stop to help because she only realised she had struck someone while watching the news two days later, a court has heard. 9News
Court documents allege she failed to provide the "necessary assistance within her power to give" to Mr Rawiri.
But the bail application was granted by magistrate Peter Miszalski, with a $10,000 surety posted through Ho's husband and on the condition she will report to police twice a week. Lawyer Frank Ngo said his client, an Australian citizen who has lived here since 2003, only noticed "that she was the driver of the vehicle" after watching the news on Thursday night."We say that there is no failure to assist."
He said bail was required due to the financial hardship Ho's family would suffer without her income and due to the "lengthy period" until a trial date. Outside court, Ho's husband - flanked by Mr Ngo - said his wife thought she had hit "just a metal pole" and heard "a metal noise".He said the family watched TV news on Thursday night and realised Ho had been involved.Ho's matter was adjourned to Burwood Local Court on May 16.
