Why Aren't Dangerous Drivers Punished?

Sobre este vídeo

Every year, road traffic collisions claim over a million lives worldwide, yet the legal response often feels disproportionately lenient compared to other fatal crimes. We speak with leading legal and criminology experts, Professor Sally Kyd and Professor Ian Loader, to investigate why the justice system struggles to punish road violence and how our societal dependence on cars clouds our judgment. Discover why focusing solely on "bad drivers" might actually be making our roads less safe, and what a systemic, aviation-style approach to infrastructure could do to protect vulnerable road users.
