Lorry driver Tomasz Kroker to be jailed for more then 10 years

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Lorry driver Tomasz Kroker ploughed into the family's stationary car at 50mph while scrolling through music on his mobile phone. 10 years is not enough time to serve for what his actions has caused. Lets get the sentence extended and in the future be stricter with using phones when driving

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

In any case, this isn't something that the UK Government or Parliament could do. Sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.

Anyone can ask the Attorney General to review a sentence they think is too low, and only one person needs to ask for a sentence to be reviewed. You can find out how to do that here:
