Sky News went deeper than any UK outlet - travelling to 🇨🇦 to ask why the UK still refuses to adopt GDL. “Insanity.” “Irresponsible.” “Disingenuous.” Their words, not ours.

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

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

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

Heidi Alexander MP Solving the waiting list should be welcomed. If young people want to be safe drivers, they shouldn’t have to endure excessive waits … 👍🏻 But, of course many choose not to drive / cannot afford to drive.

After, over 2 years of hell, the driver was only sentenced to 5 1/2 years for killing my beautiful daughter and then showing no remorse. Not the strong message I was hoping for! #RoadSafety #RoadCrimeisCrime #DrivingLaws
