Petition Lifetime driving ban for convicted Drunk or Drug drivers.
Make it law that anyone convicted of Drink or Drug driving offences to have their driving privileges taken away from them for the rest of their life. There is no excuses to get behind the wheel of a car intoxicated either through alcohol or narcotics. There should be zero tolerance.
More details
We believe that convicted drunk or drugged drivers pose a severe threat to public safety endangering lives. This strict measure could serve as a deterrent, discouraging offenders and reinforcing the gravity of the consequences associated with impaired driving. By permanently removing their driving privileges, society sends a clear message about the zero-tolerance stance toward reckless behaviour that jeopardises the lives of others. This proactive approach aims to create safer roads.
