04 outlines the latest example of pandering to motorists by
the courts.

A few extracts.

>Ruth Inglis, a lawyer who works for the Scottish Executive,
>was fined £2000 and disqualified for two years after
>pleading guilty to careless driving on the A1 near Dunbar
>in September 2002.

>Mrs Whales, who lives in Joppa with her husband and two
>children, added: "The family are up in arms about the
>sentence and the way they feel they have been let down by
>the justice system."

And the most sickening nonsense of all is the following:

>Inglis’ lawyer, Govan MSP Gordon Jackson QC, told the court
>she had been punished by having the threat of prison
>hanging over her.

Gosh, that's such a hard punishment.

The three dead were in another car.
