There is a world between small deviations from the Rules of the Road in moments of inattention and a real desire to do something and put everyone in danger. That is why the government has decided to revise some of the rules to be more tolerant slight speeding, for example, and deal with real violators of traffic rules. And if you regularly read Auto Plus lines, you know how many there are, unfortunately. And it is against the latter that the state wants to act in order to punish them more severely. So Elizabeth Bourne announced a series of events on July 17 during the conference.

Approved event
And among them is the creation of the crime of road accident. This new name replaces the term involuntary manslaughter, which may have been misunderstood by victims’ families. And this is even if the incurred fines should not change in practice. But what do associations think about this name change? Well, they would rather be for, as Alexandra Legendre claims, Drivers’ Protection League. She explains that ” this is a request of the victims’ associations, which I consider respectable. When you are affected by this drama, you may find it hard to stomach the term “involuntary.” It remains to distinguish road accidents with aggravating circumstances and road accidents without“.
Other measures
But, according to her, this is not enough, and she is campaigning for the introduction of other measures. When asked by our colleagues from Auto-Moto, she explains, for example, that ” we would like to create type of community service, for young drivers who have caused a fatal accident. The idea would be to raise the awareness of college and high school students several times“. It also calls for increased government awareness, as well as more controls, particularly on drugs and alcohol.
