The UK's crime and punishment - Stupid as f**k... You could park your car on someone over here and say 'It was an accident' then only get 3 years for man slaughter... Look at victorian times, they were cutting peoples head off and hanging them until the sun set and now it's all 'Awww, that's a bit to harsh...' This country makes me sick.
First of all, parking a car on a person would be death by dangerous driving as stated by Part 1 Section 1 of the Road Traffic Act 1998.
In which the following guidelines are given:
No aggravating circumstances= twelve months to two year imprisonment.
Intermediate culpability= two to four and a half years imprisonment.
Higher culpability= four and a half to seven years imprisonment.
Most serious culpability= seven to fourteen years imprisonment.
They must also be disqualified for 2 years and ordered to resit their driving test.
A lot of out sentences are pretty stupid really.
Take this for example:
Treason Act of 1351 states that:
violating the sovereigns wife or the sovereigns eldest unmarried daughter or the sovereigns eldest sons wife (aka - sexual intercourse when not married to them)
Will result in the death penalty (until 1998) now it is mandatory life imprisonment.
Same as it's a crime to allow your pet to have sex with the Monarch's pets... The list of retarded laws goes on
