A 40-year-old man has appeared on two counts of reckless driving causing injury in relation to a car crash caused by an allegedly drunk teenager.
The Alexandra man, who has interim name suppression, appeared before the registrar in the Alexandra District Court yesterday.
He was the adult seated beside the teenage driver when the crash happened near Alexandra on October 21.
Announcing the charges last week, Sergeant Derek Ealson, of Alexandra, said a reckless driving charge could be laid if a person drove a vehicle or caused a vehicle to be driven.
A 15-year-old had been driving a van with four people in it when it rolled on Little Valley Rd just after 7pm on October 21.
