Suspend licences after fatal or serious road collisions

Background

Introduce a law requiring immediate suspension of a driver’s licence after a road traffic collision causing death or serious injury, pending a full investigation, with a right to appeal.

Additional details

Drivers involved in fatal or serious collisions may continue driving while investigations are ongoing. This can be distressing for families and may put others at risk. A temporary suspension would not assume guilt but would reflect the seriousness of the situation while investigations take place, helping improve safety and public confidence.
