Mngadi said clarity would be gained when the expert testified and he had no objection with sharing the notes, provided they existed. Culpable homicide, reckless and negligent driving and driving without a valid license are the charges against John.John had a learners driver’s licence at the time and was the sole occupant of the VW that crashed on Tatford Avenue, in Sunford, Phoenix.
