Give all drink and drug drivers automatic 10 year ban

Closed 404 signatures

What the petition asks

My mother was left in a pool of blood on the pavement because someone choose to drink and drive , He then left the scene with 3 other people in the car with no remorse , I was 12 years old standing over my mother with no one around , Nothing has changed in the 37 years she was killed ,
Too many people are losing their lives due to drunk and drug drivers , The punishment in the UK is to weak with most willing to take the chance " why is this " no one fears the punishment , It is time to make people think hard about what will happen and the consequences of their actions .

10 year ban on the first offence with no appeal .
