Petition - Sentencing for criminal drivers that kill

I was unsure which forum to post that in. As it petitions parliament I thought I'd put it here.

The petitioner has some link to BRAKE! and it's not like them to press emotional buttons.

To be fair, the sentancing for crime is pretty fecked anyway. You can get longer in jail for lying about a speeding ticket than attacking someone.

I agree.

And if you do kill someone driving the penalties seem disproportinately low.

Couldn't more be done to raise the standards of driving on our roads?
