Review the law into hit and run road collisions and charge drivers appropriately

Closed 18 signatures

What the petition asks

For too long drivers who have caused death by dangerous driving in hit and run collisions are let off by courts lightly yet families are left shattered and lives are taken away. Drivers cause hit and run accidents and then refuse to stop. We call for a review into the law on hit and run collisions
