Should reckless drivers face tougher sentences?

Darrell Martin, Major Richard Gilbey and Mark Fenhalls QC discuss the issue.

Lee Martin's brother Darrel, Major Richard Gilbey whose son James was killed by a speeding car, and Mark Fenhalls QC, former chair of the Criminal Bar association, discuss whether the law on dangerous driving should change.
