Roads: Accidents
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how many individuals were prosecuted for failing to report injuries to or killing a dog in a road traffic incident in England and Wales in each of the last five years.

-
Under section 170 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 it is an offence to fail to stop, or report within 24 hours, an accident where personal injury or damage is caused. Data held centrally on the Ministry of Justice's Court Proceedings database do not include the circumstances of each case other than those specified in the statute and it is not possible to identify details of these offences which include injuries or death to a dog.
