Default Another pavement attack on a person using a car as a weapon.

Good job it wasn't a cyclist victim this time. Doesn't this clearly
demonstrate though how lightly the deliberate use of a car as a weapon
is punished?

"A 23-year-old man has been jailed after he mowed down a man in his
car, leaving him seriously hurt.

James Blundell, of Urmston, deliberately hit the man at speed outside
the Tim Bobbin Pub near his home in Flixton Road in September 2009.

Minshull Street Crown Court heard his victim was left needing
extensive surgery for a split bowel and has lost his job, home and
car.

Blundell was jailed for 15 months. He admitted assault and dangerous
driving..."

WHHAAAT! Only 15 months? Supposing he had been deliberately using a
knife as a weapon instead? Nowhere is safe from these motorists, they
kill, injure and smash houses and shops with relative impunity. The
justice system is skewed in their favour, probably because virtually
everyone connected with the so-called justice system is a motorist.

A driving licence is a licence to kill.


Who makes the 'relative impunity.' it's a make of car I am not familer
with?
