Liberal Democrat — Hazel Grove

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 January 2025

Debate

Road Safety: Young Drivers

Contribution

I am very grateful to the hon. Lady for the way she is laying out her case. Does she agree that preventing young people from speeding is one way to prevent accidents? Like me, she knows that it is very difficult to get fixed speed cameras in place. The current Government guidance says that three serious accidents or deaths must occur before a fixed speed camera can be installed. Does she agree that a preventive approach would be much more successful than a punitive approach?
