As you may be aware, there are penalties available for exceeding the
speed limit, as there are for illegal parking regardless or whether an
accident ensues, such penalties being more severe when an accident
occurs for the reason stated. Never having received such a penalty in
nearly fifty years of driving, however, I'll be guided by those who
obviously have fallen foul of the law.

You may think it a good idea to kill speeding drivers, but I'll keep an
open mind on it.

last year on a road near here, a car left the road, hit a tree and killed
the 2 occupants. A lot of bleating about the road being unsafe,
inadequately marked, etc.

Facts: 1.the car was shown to have been travelling at well over the 40mph
speed limit - Volvo estates generally stand up well to this sort of impact
2. The occupants were aged 16 & 14 - far too young to be driving legally.
3. They'd just left the home of relatives who must have known their age
How did they get the car (belonging to their father) in the first place?
