Dangerous Driving: Driving Licences
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what (a) number and (b) proportion of people who obtained a driving licence in the last 10 years after a previous conviction for death by dangerous driving committed a further motoring offence.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The information requested is not held. The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency is not informed when an individual is released from prison, and endorsements ordered upon conviction by the courts for the offences of causing death by careless driving or causing death by dangerous driving are removed from the driver’s record after four years in line with the retention periods for these offences.
