After witnessing the utter devastation to families caused when a loved one is lost as a result of dangerous driving it became clear reform is needed. The existing sentences applied for this offence are not appropriate. How can taking a person’s life result in a 4-year sentence serving 2 years inside. It is a complete insult to the families. We believe an average sentence of 10 years would be respectful to those lives lost, alongside a lifetime ban on driving.
