A huge response to my story with this yesterday such amazing support off so many people ♥️ Iv been asked a few times to do a post so its easier to find -
I started speaking to our local MP about the lack of laws and the limited powers police have when it comes to removing a person’s driving licence after they cause an accident while under the influence of drink or drugs.
The number of people, including ourselves, who can’t believe this isn’t already in place has been incredible. It really feels like unless you go through something like this, you’d have no idea.
There is currently a survey being discussed in Parliament to gather public views on laws surrounding dangerous drink and drug driving. I have the link to it and will share on the next page
It’s not a quick survey, but if anyone can spare five minutes to complete it, it could genuinely help make a difference if these changes are passed.
The survey closes on 11th May 2026, and hopefully it can help bring about a much needed change to the current systems in place. https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/proposed-changes-to-penalties-for-motoring-offences
