4x4 VEHICLES ON RIGHTS OF WAY

Early day motion 968, tabled 1 March 2010 by Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 33 members.

That this House notes that damage is being done to rights of way by their illegal use by drivers of 4x4s and other mechanically-driven vehicles; further notes the difficulty in bringing prosecutions and the unwillingness of the Crown Prosecution Service to bring charges to court; and therefore urges the Government to implement fixed penalty notices for these offences to discourage these damaging activities.

Signatures by party: Labour 17, Liberal Democrat 14, Conservative 2.
