A man was given a suspended prison sentence and a £500 fine following the death of an Australian cyclist.
David Harris, 33, of Worcester Park, was arrested after the body of Damien Jeffrey was found by the A3 dual carriageway in Surrey.
Damien, 25, who had been living in New Malden, was found in the early hours of July 4, 2006, after police were alerted by a driver worried about his safety.
Harris pleaded guilty to driving without due care and attention and perverting the course of justice, and to failing to stop after an accident.
He was also banned from driving for 12 months and sentenced to 150 hours' unpaid work by Guildford Crown Court.
He was given a six-month prison sentence, suspended for 18 months.
