Even The Scots Ban People For Longer Than We Do!

This story came in on the newsfeed. It tells how a learner driver, Stuart McCulloch, was jailed for causing a crash in which his friend, Michael Cameron, was killed.

Even though McCulloch was over the drink drive limit, and he lied to police about who was driving, the story has some poignancy. Not much, but some.

But the bit that surprised me most of all was the fact that he was banned from holding or obtaining a driving licence for 10 years. In England it’d probably be two years at the most, with the distinct possibility of not even a ban if there was some idiotic mitigating yarn spun by the defence lawyer.
