Proceeding contribution from Louise Ellman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [Lords].
Road Safety Bill [Lords]
In the context of child casualties, and indeed other casualties, will my right hon. Friend think again about one of the variable penalty proposals, which will reduce the number of penalty points for breaking the 30 mph speed limit? The Department’s own publicity depicts a child saying:"““Hit at 40 mph: There is an 80 per cent. chance I’ll die. Hit at 30 mph: There is an 80 per cent. chance I’ll live””."
