Loosing Marcus to an unlicensed, uninsured, banned driver who had never held a licence, driving a stolen car on cloned plates this is a fantastic step in the right direction. More to do but it’s a start! Drive Insured Lilian Greenwood Heidi Alexander MP Connor Rand MP
Driving at high speeds, brings loss of control which not only is inevitable, but preventable! It brings irreparable damage to families who experience loss of loved one Lilian Greenwood Daniel Sandford GMP Traffic Andy Burnham Kier Starmer (Parody) Victims' Commissioner for England & Wales Connor Rand MP
When Marcus was left dying at side of the road, the driver absconded. 6 days later he was apprehended.Time and time again offenders make off, it makes the tragedy more horrifying for the families and loved ones. Thinking of little girl and her family Lilian Greenwood GMP Traffic
Example how a Disqualified, Unlicensed, Uninsured motorist flouts the law. It is so easy for offenders, the driver will go back to court and the merry go round starts again! No deterrent Shabana Mahmood MP Mark Saltern #RyansLaw ⚖ #RysHaven 🕊 Andrew Western MP Lilian Greenwood RoadPeace
The stats are fact, the intel is there. Instead Great Britain politics are grasping at inferior models to go ‘Ta-daa’ on a Band Aid. I can tell you how victims and their families feel and it’s worse than ‘Penalised’ Dan Whitehead Wes Streeting dr ian greenwood Caitlin's Campaign
What has changed so dramatically? Vision Zero rarely mentioned, if at all! Can we highlight the punchy language being used lately and clarify that there should be no sides, penalised etc. Lilian Greenwood Heidi Alexander MP dr ian greenwood Dan Whitehead Daniel Sandford
What we are witnessing are commitments being watered down, quietly put to the bottom of the pile. Road Safety is NOT punishment, it is not making life harder, but safer for all road users #VisionZero Lilian Greenwood Rebecca Morris Caitlin's Campaign Dan Whitehead dr ian greenwood
We are waiting patiently for a ‘alternative’ to fact proven, data led, GDL and Vision Zero. Department for Transport are happy reinventing the wheel, meanwhile NHS buckles under the cost, families are shattered daily, & still no action Heidi Alexander MP Rebecca Morris
Following fatal RTC ‘Sibling loss’ huge. The silence that nobody speaks about but everybody feels. The impact on mental health, education, employment, identity, often unseen but runs deep #siblinggrief #RTCloss #roadsafety Rebecca Morris dr ian greenwood Department for Transport
Marcus was killed by an unlicensed, uninsured banned driver. Sadly when the punishment does not reflect the severity of the act, it fails to act as a deterrent. Yet he was bailed to do it AGAIN Shabana Mahmood MP Rebecca Morris Daniel Sandford Dan Whitehead Sentencing Council
Each year unlicensed and/or uninsured drivers KSI over 26,136 on our roads. Many are repeat offenders, who with no deterrent continue to drive. This heartache can not continue Shabana Mahmood MP Drive Insured Rebecca Morris Sentencing Council David Ward dr ian greenwood
Unbelievably 2 days later caught driving after being bailed! What we are witnessing in the UK are communities who have lost faith in our justice system, government. If justice is not equal is it really justice at all? Shabana Mahmood MP James Timpson Rebecca Morris
A right of passage? That can be a dangerous perception, milestone some may think they are ‘entitled’ to? It is a PRIVILEGE which carries serious responsibility, maturity, not fast track to get on the road #GDL Heidi Alexander MP Rebecca Morris dr ian greenwood Caitlin's Campaign
Day in day out drivers are deliberately and purposely flouting the law. Many are already banned drivers, with no robust consequences, they continue to flout the law. Many are halted after they KSI other road users #fatal5 #visionzero Drive Insured Rebecca Morris
The language being used politically in recent days is dangerous. If our MP’s cannot spare humility and understanding then how can we TRUST them to bring changes, justice victims and families deserve Wes Streeting Heidi Alexander MP Rebecca Morris dr ian greenwood Caitlin's Campaign
Year on year the DVLA are dealing with more and more medical issues. It is not just elderly who get behind the wheel with poor eyesight, health conditions, medications which affect their ability to drive. This needs robust action Heidi Alexander MP Lilian Greenwood Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency
Nothing spits in Marcus’s face more than learning the offender who caused his death, soon after release on licence, has now been recalled for driving once again whilst banned. Absolutely sickening RoadPeace Brake, the road safety charity Caitlin's Campaign dr ian greenwood
