This is a reintroduction of the Fairness for Road Users Act, which would be a meaningful change for families across the province who know too well the pain of loss or injury on our roads. I’d like to thank the Bikers Rights Organization for their decades of advocacy on this issue.
This bill amends the Highway Traffic Act. If a person causes or contributes to causing an accident which causes death or serious bodily harm and at the same time the person was contravening the Highway Traffic Act or its regulations, then the person is guilty of an offence. The court would be able to sentence the person to a fine of up to $50,000 or to imprisonment for up to two years or both. The court may also suspend the person’s driver’s licence or permit.
The Fairness for Road Users Act (Bill 47) would increase penalties if someone on the road breaks a driving law and hurts or kills someone. This bill would give the court options during sentencing so that families might no longer suffer insult after suffering injury.
