This is a matter of judgement but I don't think a crash that puts a cyclist in hospital with a cracked rib etc. is a minor collision.

That argument assumes the only appropriate sentence is one that mirrors the damage done by the crime, rather than one that helps prevent crime by any method.

My point is: If lazy driving is not calculated then harsh 'punishment' as a deterrent might not actually be the most effective way to tackle it - because the sentences are never considered. The driver is not considering the effects of what they're doing.

I realize this has natural limits., and each case is different.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
