...it is about time someone took a stance on young people and their irresponsible driving habits.
Aah, nothing like a broad sweeping generalising to provoke a response.
:
A ban that lengthy has significant implications on somebody's life, kids, work etc in the future - It seems that the judge is making an example of this guy He is in his 20's now and won't be allowed to drive until he's nearly 50?? Did this guys actions cause deaths or anything?
Everybody agrees that something has to be done about the driving habits of a number of young people in these rural areas but a blanket ban on driving for 20 odd years is not the way to do it.
I agree fully Marietta, but what I am trying to find out is can a judge use his own descretion when imposing non custodial punishments in cases of motoring offences. I presume in terms of custodial sentences he is governed by both precedence and by legal recommendations which will set out a max & min punishment for a crime.
According to the report he got 22 months in jail as well as the 25-year ban.... Why not give him 6 months if it was that bad?
