Dad of teen drink drive victims campaigns for life bans
A grieving dad has used an appearance on Question Time to spark a campaign to bring in life bans for drink drivers who cause fatal crashes. Scott Webb said he was determined something good would come out of a tragedy that saw his son Aidan, 19, killed by motorist who was one and a half times over the limit. The teen was a passenger on the way home from watching England in the Euros when a Vauxhall Corsa driven by Tyler Wilkins, 20, crashed just before 10pm on December 10 2022. Wilkins pleaded guilty to one count of causing death by careless driving whilst over the legal limit of alcohol and was jailed for three and a half years in September this year. But his seven year driving ban has left Aidan’s family bereft and demanding much stronger sentences. Scott, 52, of Milton Keynes, said: "Our main aim is to introduce a law that means drivers that kill while over the limit are banned for life. "I don't want people to lose licences - I want there to be something to stop people drink driving."
