Question juridique clé
Whether the appellant's promise to stop driving could remove doubts about his future good conduct and justify a conditional sentence.
Solution extraite
The promise did not dispel the doubts about future conduct and did not substitute for the unfavorable prognosis based on prior life and character.
Motifs extraits
A mere promise does not guarantee compliance; here it was made out of fear of imprisonment rather than primarily from a genuine will to reform.
