Just Six Months For Killing A Cyclist

[Banjo]

Arson is a fairly serious offence !

Especially as he put 80 people on the dole in an area of allready high unemployment. I can guess where they would like to stub out their fags..

I wonder whether some form of community service could be the most beneficial 'punishment'. I don't mean picking up litter, but somehow publicly trying to get the message across to other drivers, by telling her story, and trying to wake drivers up to the consequences of their actions. I don't know what form this would take, I haven't really thought it through properly yet!

The best sentence would be to ban her from driving forever. Then if she's that keen on good works she can spend the rest of her life visiting every driver in the neighbourhood advising them not to drive if there are as unfit as she clearly is, and otherwise to drive carefully and, preferably, slowly. She could also try explaining how her Christianity fits with killing people.

May be easier to view 'flat' starting with post by 'Westpig' at 14:56 on 21 Jan. Car 4 Play is one of the more sensible motoring forums.

Quite apart from the issue of it being full of slavering petrolheads, that just makes me want to @Shaun for our vastly superior forum software...

Dear gods, that's a sensible petrolhead forum? I suppose in that they don't all evince a desire to remove all cyclists from the road, instantly, it must be. But the general level of discussion still seems to be " this is our road. Take the consequences if you dare get on it. "
