Proceeding contribution from Owen Paterson (Conservative) 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]
I am grateful for that comment, but I am not sure whether the hon. Lady has answered my point. We acknowledge the existence of a problem, which we intend to address. We should probably move on from that point, because we intend to discuss the matter in detail in Committee. If a fit young man were hit by a car in a town as a result of dangerous driving, the impact may not kill them, but if they were hit in the country, where ambulances take longer to arrive, the offence would be triggered.
