The man charged with careless driving involving the death of a 10-year-old Charles McIntyre took the stand in his own defence Thursday.

Neil Skjodt recalled the incident on Apr. 13, 2020, along Whoop-Up Drive West and Aquitania Boulevard.

He told the court that while exiting the centre, a shadow was cast on the roadway from the adjacent building that was under construction. Skjodt was looking east for oncoming traffic travelling westbound on Whoop Up Drive. Skjodt recalled that he saw cars exiting the roundabout on Whoop Up Drive and thought to himself “I’m not in a hurry” to beat the cars. He said he was scanning the area left to right and saw cars, but no pedestrians.
