Alfred Ng Hon Lum, 30, committed the offence along the Central Expressway, towards Seletar Expressway at the slip road into Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3. It happened at around 8.40am on Sept 22, last year.

Ng failed to keep a proper lookout while driving his car and it hit the rear of a stationary SBS bus.

His child was rushed to KK Women's and Children's Hospital where she died of head injuries three days later.
