Petition Longer sentences and disqualification for drug/drink drivers who injure someone

The current law for serious injury by dangerous driving is a maximum of 5 years. I think that when this is caused by a drink and/or drug driver, the sentence should be made harsher, with an automatic disqualification for life to make our roads safer.
