Proceeding contribution from Sally Keeble (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]

When a stabbing takes place, the victim might or might not die, which determines what the perpetrator is charged with. We are considering the degree of care exercised in driving and the level of culpability, which is the difference between dangerous driving and careless driving. The problem is that the gap between dangerous driving and minor traffic offences is too great.
