You admit to repeatedly breaking the law (as have we all) but 'having brakes' does not mitigate your (our) guilt
. Speed limits are designed to keep people safe.
As for remorse, some people are not given to outward expression of emotion.
I'm not defending this cyclist btw; I don't have access to all the info/CCTV and obviously if a judge feels a custodial sentence is an appropriate penalty for an accident, then so be it.
