The important thing with dangerous drivers like that - on land or sea - isn't so much jaiing them, it should be to ensure that they never again get a chance to get behind a wheel for the rest of their lives. I can't understand the logic behind these short-term bans.

It always strikes me as strange that so often the very people who get fiercely punitive about theft suddenly turn incredibly tolerant of car-driving crime. (Except when it's a stolen car, of course.)
