It is time that failing to provide driver details results in a lifetime driving ban. This loophole must be closed. Can you imagine the public outcry if the owner of a bicycle whose vehicle was used to deliberately harm an innocent bystander was allowed to get away with failing to provide the rider's details? I wonder why we have never heard of such a case.. |

I wonder why we have never heard of such a case.. Forget the offence for a moment - it could be anything from picking the council's flowers to bank robbery - would you impose a draconian (not to say vindictive) penalty on somebody against whom there is no evidence, merely on the basis that there is no evidence against him and that you "think" that he should have confessed to something you suspect him of committing even though there is no evidence to support that belief to an acceptable standard of proof? Is that really what you mean? |

Good first step. QUOTE: "Sam Jones, CTC Campaign Coordinator, said the case was being looked at by the organisation's Cyclists' Defence Fund, which works to raise awareness of the law relating to cycling and offers help with legal cases. "We're now aware of the Police's reporting of their investigation, and will follow up accordingly. CTC's Cyclist Defence Fund has been in touch with Reginald Scot and we are now looking into how we can help him find justice for this awful incident. "Considering the seriousness of the injury and how blatant the offence, this is very weak from the court not to have imposed the maximum penalty on the unnamed Nottingham man who failed to provide the driver's details." - See more at: http://road.cc/content/news/177630-p....UjxA8UyH.dpuf |
