There actions caused an economic loss and also policing costs with a grand total approaching £2M. I presume that has had a lot to do with the sentencing.

What about when motorways are closed due to accidents or vehicle fires.

Should we arrest and charge these people?

There's stil no point a custodial sentence is appropriate. It's simply used as a deterrent, not a just punishment.
