A new law would see those committing similar offenses in prison for up to five years. 

 

"I think the sentences will make people think twice, but I do believe that if they make samples and give maximum sentences that’s when it will make a difference." Under current legislation, the court limited their sentencing powers. 

 

Those found guilty of dangerous driving face a prison sentence for up to two years, while the other end of the scale, death by dangerous driving could result in a maximum of 14 years in jail. The idea of new offense is the plug of gap. 

 

Cases of causing serious injury by dangerous driving which are dealt with in the magistrates court will have a maximum penalty of six months in prison, a 5000-pound fine or both. While in the Crown Court of dependence would face jail term up to five years or a unlimited fine or both punishments. The road safety charity Brake has been calling for a change in the law.

 

"This in previous five years is really good, step in the right direction, is a better move towards getting justice of those victims need. And it also hopefully what I said is a big more of deterring to say to dangerous drivers. Your behavior is unacceptable and we are going to punish you accordingly. 

 

Cerys is nearly six now, and she just made a remarkable progress, but she is still fed by a tube and needs a ventilator to breath. 

 

"Good girl, we can hear it. But you would back on to the ventilator. Good girl."

 

A longer sentence would have changed that. But for Tracey, it would at least be a sense of justice being done.
