Government announces punishment hike for dangerous drivers
THE MAXIMUM jail sentence for dangerous driving is to be more than doubled from two years to five, the Government has revealed.Justice Secretary Jack Straw warned drivers who are involved in incidents where others are seriously hurt they could face up to five years in jail. "Dangerous driving can destroy lives and have a devastating impact on the families and friends of its victims."We have listened to the innocent victims of dangerous drivers, their families and road safety groups. Their experiences have directly informed these changes."Mr Straw said the new law would not come into effect until after the general election.
