Petition Increase max sentence for injury caused due to dangerous driving to 10 years

We want the government to change the law on dangerous driving. We think current sentences are too soft for the serious effects dangerous drivers can cause to victims.

More details

We feel that many families are facing injustice due to the light sentences being given when their loved ones have been the victims of injury caused by dangerous driving. We think they deserve better. We believe there should be harsher sentences due to the circumstances.
