Introduce a progressive system of penalties for speeding offences in 20mph zones

Petition Details

We call on the Government to amend sentencing laws and reduce the minimum penalties for speeding in 20mph zones, so that a first offence between 20-25 mph only results in 1 point, a second leads to 2 points, and a third leads to 3 points.

Additional Information

We believe too many urban drivers are accumulating points and getting disqualified for marginal and minor offenses. A progressive system could send out the same message but avoid automatic disqualification being imposed too quickly.

If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
