Fifty-year-old Emmett Cooke, of Dunbar, was sentenced Tuesday in Fayette County Court for his no contest plea to involuntary manslaughter and reckless endangerment.
The crash killed 49-year-old Terry Kurosky, of Dunbar, in May 2007. Both men were riding in a car driven by a third man when Cooke pulled the brake.
Police say Cooke told them he had done the same before, but nothing happened.
Cooke will also spend three years on a type of probation, including nine months' house arrest, and must pay Kurosky's family more than $13,000.
