Man on trial for causing wife's death in golf buggy accident.
Today, a man appeared in a North Queensland court, facing charges related to a tragic incident that occurred during his honeymoon on Hamilton Island. Robbie Awad is accused of causing the death of his new wife, Marina Hanna, in a golf buggy crash. He has been charged with driving without due care and attention, causing death. However, he has admitted to using his phone while driving and failing to ensure that both he and his wife were wearing seatbelts when the buggy they were in tipped over.

The accident took place in June 2022, crushing Hanna underneath the vehicle and tragically ending her life. The newlywed couple, who had only been married for 10 days, had been staying at the luxurious Qualia resort. They had decided to take a drive up a steep road near One Tree Hill to find a place to eat. Unfortunately, their plans took a devastating turn.

During the court hearing, it was revealed that Awad and Hanna were on their way back to the resort when the accident occurred. Body cam footage from the police showed Awad in a state of distress, explaining what had happened. He mentioned that the buggy was not going very fast and that he had commented on the battery being damaged. He then attempted to make a U-turn, but the buggy picked up speed and flung Hanna out. The whole incident lasted only three seconds, leaving Awad in shock and disbelief.

The defence argued that Awad had been driving carefully and had executed the U-turn in the most responsible way he could. They stated that the death of his wife was a tragic accident, and Awad should not be held accountable for it. The hearing is set to continue tomorrow, where the final decision will be made.
