Create tougher sentences for death by careless driving

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like to make this petition to create tougher sentences for people that cause death by careless driving, my family lost a case to get justice for my nephew who was killed by a careless driver that knocked my nephew off his moped, the driver of the car is now serving a measly 12month sentence
The driver had taken his mother’s black Nissan Pixo without permission and had no licence or insurance when he knocked Alfie off his moped at a roundabout in North Finchley.
Bahramzadeh, a convicted drug dealer, abandoned the car and fled before police and paramedics arrived at the scene shortly before 6pm on November 17, 2016.
At Wood Green crown court last week, Judge Joanna Greenberg QC sentenced Bahramzadeh to 12 months behind bars and banned him from the roads for 30 months.
