A spokesman for the automobile People who think everything is fine with cars just make sure you do what we want/say and spend £millions on serving our needs association said, “successful campaigns on drinking and driving have made the practice unacceptable and in a few years’ time, the pub car park will be a thing of the past.”

We are long past the time to take driving licences away for LIFE!

“david9694 also asked for three instances of failing to unclip to be taken into consideration when determining sentence”

we’re again talking elsewhere about instances where a cyclist has died, but the driver that hit them gets no jail time.
