From what I've heard on snippets of news, and seen reported here, people don't often get sent to prison anyway, so will there be much difference?....
Interesting point about collateral damage form James. I saw on the news last night the story of the 9 year old girl killed when the front of the house she was walking past was blown off by a gas explosion. Horrible for family and friends of course and freakishly bad luck, but I wonder how many 9 years olds were killed or injured on the roads yesterday, who never got a mention on the national news.
I've wondered sometimes, if it would do any good to persuade a paper, or news programme to report every road death, say for a month, whether hearing it, day after day, would ram home to people (drivers, cyclists and pedestrians) their responsibilities as road users.
