The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the appellant's appeal concerning the sufficiency of evidence for charges of traffic endangerment and a traffic offense. The lower court found that the evidence presented was sufficient to establish the defendant's liability based on the specific circumstances of the incident. Consequently, the appeal was rejected because the appellate court did not find any material errors in the factual findings or the application of law by the first instance court.
