Rejected petition 5 year driving ban for speads in excess of 10mph over the specified limit.
A driver who speeds excessively is aware of their actions. Therefore an immediate ban of 5years should be given to those driving in excess of 10mph over the specified limit.
More details
Many people are killed each year by speeding drivers. If those drivers were told if they speed more than 10mph over the specified limit they would be banned from driving for 5 years. We would have a lot of people asking themselves is it rely worth the risk of 5 year instant ban.
