Closed petition Stricter penalties for running red traffic lights near schools

Closed on 13 April 2022

We need stricter penalties for people who run through red lights near schools.

We need this because on a weekly basis in my area of Medway, people drive straight through traffic lights near a primary school. I have witnessed multiple occasions where people have driven straight through and almost hit a child. Some people go straight through the red light hoping for the best. People need to be held accountable for their reckless driving, 3 points on their licence and a £100 fine isn't enough. We need to protect our children.
