This episode was released in January 2023 to coincide with the Tour Down Under event and an increase in cyclists using our roads during the warmer months. Byron Gordon was the first life lost on South Australian roads of 1 January 2021. He was cycling with good mate, Geoffrey Doe, along Seaview Road, Henley Beach.
It was then that a vehicle crossed onto the incorrect side of the road, narrowly missing Geoff and stuck Byron. Geoff and witnesses immediately commenced CPR on Byron but despite their efforts, Byron died at the crash scene.
Bryon was a GP at the Kingston Family Clinic South Brighton and his daughter is a serving SAAS paramedic.
The 52-year-old offending driver had a cocktail of methamphetamine, MDMA, cocaine and cannabis in his system. He plead guilty to aggravated cause death by dangerous driving and received an imprisonment for 5 years, 2 months, 22 days (non parole 4 years, 2 months, 6 days) and was disqualified from driving or obtaining a licence for 15 years.

Kristalle Dumesny was 18 years old when her car collided with a truck after the 2017 Easter long weekend. Kristalle received fatal injuries and sadly died at the scene. She was driving home from her family’s holiday home when she failed to give way to a heavy vehicle at the intersection of the Augusta Highway and Copper Coast Highway, Port Augusta. Her father Steve Dumesny saw the crash site on a media report and knew that it was his daughter’s vehicle. He then phoned his good mate Superintendent Scott Denny who was the Office in Charge of the Local Service Area where the crash occurred asking him if his worst fear was true.
The truck drive, Troy Oakes was not injured in the crash but on his way home from the scene with his boss Jayne Mills, he was injured in a second crash when an insecure load fell off a truck and crashed through Jayne’s window causing her vehicle to roll.
