  • Causing Death by Driving Offences
    Causing death by driving offences Literature review September 2018 Dr Rachel McPherson and Professor Cyrus Tata Centre for Law, Crime & Justice, The Law School, Strathclyde University Literature review prepared for the consideration of the Scottish Sentencing Council. The views expressed are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent those of the Council. www.scottishsentencingcouncil.org.uk [email protected] Causing death by driving offences Literature review 1.0 Death by driving: the Scottish landscape 1.1 Framework of offences In Scotland, ‘homicide’ is the umbrella term which encapsulates the separate offences1 of murder and culpable homicide. Through this distinction, a range of circumstances in which a death can be caused is represented. Since the introduction of the Road Traffic Act 1960, causing death by means of a motor vehicle has been treated separately under statutory law, and is now specifically provided for by the UK-wide Road Traffic Act 1988. Despite this, potential still exists for prosecutions to be brought under the common law2, but the view in Scotland, supported by Purcell3, seems to be that any prosecution under common law, even in the most serious of cases, can only be for culpable homicide and not murder, unless there was a wilful act intended to kill or cause physical injury. A vehicle can, of course, be used as a weapon.4 Part one of the Road Traffic Act 1988 contains the relevant offences which pertain to death by driving. The broad offences are: 1. Causing death by dangerous driving5 2. Causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving6 1 For a discussion about the extent to which these offences are separate, see Ferguson, P., and Mc Diarmid, C., 2014.

  • An Overview of the Prison Population of England and Wales Peter Cuthbertson
    Who goes to prison? An overview of the prison population of England and Wales Peter Cuthbertson December 2017 Summary What sort of offence, and what sort of criminal history, persuades the courts to impose a custodial sentence? Much of the debate around sentencing, and the appropriate size of the prison population, rests on this question. It is widely suggested on one side of the debate that the courts persistently refuse to incarcerate large numbers of hardened criminals, instead imposing non-custodial sentences like confetti. Some campaigners on the other side argue that prison should be reserved for serious, repeat offenders. In so doing, they imply that a large number of prisoners are in fact first-time or minor offenders who are essentially harmless when they enter the prison gates (but often emerge schooled in crime). A criminal justice system which passes more than 1.2 million sentences a year lends itself well to many striking individual anecdotes which can be used to imply that sentencing is too soft, too harsh, or just right. But any anecdote can be a misleading, exceptional case. This briefing therefore avoids the anecdotal and explores the broad picture of those who are incarcerated. It takes a full year of sentencing data – 2016, in which 98,527 custodial sentences were imposed on 89,812 individuals in England and Wales – and investigates those individuals’ criminal history and the crimes for which they were incarcerated. The sentencing data reveal: Prolific criminals dominate the prison population 70% of custodial sentences are imposed on those with at least seven previous convictions or cautions, and 50% are imposed on those with at least 15 previous convictions or cautions.

  • The Relationship Between Crime and Road Safety
    THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CRIME AND ROAD SAFETY by Charlotte Brace, Michelle Whelan, Belinda Clark Jennie Oxley December 2009 Report No. 284 II MONASH UNIVERSITY ACCIDENT RESEARCH CENTRE MONASH UNIVERSITY ACCIDENT RESEARCH CENTRE REPORT DOCUMENTATION PAGE Report No. Date ISBN Pages 284 December 2009 0 7326 2354 5 6(40+Appendices) Title and sub-title: The relationship between crime and road safety Author(s): Charlotte Brace, Michelle Whelan, Belinda Clark & Jennie Oxley Sponsoring Organisation(s): This project was funded through the Centre’s Baseline Research Program for which grants have been received from: Department of Justice Roads Corporation (VicRoads) Transport Accident Commission Abstract: The aim of this project was to review the literature on the relationship between crime and road safety, to identify pertinent Victorian crime and road safety data, and discuss how such data can be utilised to examine the relationship between crime and road safety. Of specific interest was the relationship between criminal activity of individuals and the likelihood of these individuals being involved in a fatal or serious injury outcome road crash. The key findings of this research suggests that there is a positive relationship between: general negative behaviour (e.g. involvement in antisocial behaviours) and risky driving behaviour; criminal behaviour and traffic offences (specifically violence, theft & burglary and recidivist/drink driving, driving whilst disqualified; risky traffic behaviour contributing to a crash and criminal history (particularly for violent crime, vandalism, property crime, and involvement in traffic crime), and; crash involvement, drink driving and general criminal history including theft, car theft, drug and alcohol related crimes, violence and property damage.

  • Response to Ministry of Justice Consultation Paper “Driving Offences and Penalties Relating to Causing Death Or Serious Injury”
    Response to Ministry of Justice Consultation Paper “Driving Offences and Penalties Relating to Causing Death or Serious Injury” January 2017 The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents Response to Driving Offences and Penalties Relating to Causing Death or Serious Injury Introduction This is RoSPA’s response to the Ministry of Justice’s consultation paper, “Driving Offences and Penalties Relating to Causing Death or Serious Injury”. It has been produced following consultation with RoSPA’s National Road Safety Committee. For most serious criminal offences it is necessary to prove criminal intent on the part of the defendant, but this does not apply to specific road traffic offences. Careless or dangerous driving is determined by the nature of the driving, compared to a notional careful and competent driver, not by the driver’s state of mind or intentions, which is often difficult to ascertain. Careless driving, as defined in Section 3ZA of the Road Traffic Act 1988, is driving without due care and attention, if the manner of the driving falls below what would be expected of a competent and careful driver. Dangerous driving, as defined in Section 2A(1) of the Road Traffic Act 1988, is driving that falls far below what would be expected of a competent and careful driver, and it would be obvious to a competent and careful driver that driving in that way would be dangerous. Driving behaviour that is commonly judged to be dangerous driving includes street racing, excessive speed, driving aggressively for sustained periods, ignoring road signs or warnings from passengers, overtaking dangerously, driving under the influence of drink or drugs and driving knowing that the vehicle has a dangerous fault or an unsafe load.

  • Kidnapping and Related Offences Executive Summary – Child Abduction
    THE LAW COMMISSION SIMPLIFICATION OF CRIMINAL LAW: KIDNAPPING AND RELATED OFFENCES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY – CHILD ABDUCTION PART 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 This is one of two summaries of our report on kidnapping and related offences (the report).1 This introduction gives an overview of the full report and the recommendations we make in it. Thereafter, this summary deals exclusively with those aspects of the report relating to reform of child abduction offences. We have published another summary dealing exclusively with those aspects of the report relating to kidnapping and false imprisonment. These summaries are for people with no specialist legal knowledge. BACKGROUND 1.2 In our Tenth Programme the Law Commission embarked on a programme of simplification of the criminal law. Simplification involves: (1) giving the law a clearer structure; (2) using more modern terminology; (3) making the law in a given area more consistent with other closely allied areas of law; (4) making the law readily comprehensible to ordinary people by ensuring that it embodies sound and sensible concepts of fairness. 1.3 The simplification project has now developed into a rolling scheme reviewing several areas of the criminal law over successive Law Commission programmes. In addition to this report on kidnapping, we have ongoing projects relating to public nuisance and outraging public decency, and misconduct in public office. 1.4 On 27 September 2011 we published a consultation paper2 (“the CP”), which proposed three alternative models for reform of the law on kidnapping and false imprisonment. CLARIFICATION OF KIDNAPPING AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT 1.5 Kidnapping and false imprisonment are both common law offences.
