Lord Bradshaw – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Bradshaw on 2016-01-27.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of any correlation between the non-enforcement of low-level road user penalties and the rate of serious offences.

No assessment has been made of any correlation between the non-enforcement of low-level road user penalties and the rate of serious offences. It is an operational matter for the police to decide how they enforce road traffic legislation and what action may be appropriate in any particular case.
