Criminal prosecution
RoadPeace has been directly supporting bereaved families since 1992. This experience has allowed us to represent road crash victims in consultations relating to criminal prosecution: the CPS’ consultation on their Bad Driving Prosecution Policy and the two reviews into road death related prosecutions conducted by Her Majesty’s Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMcpsI) in 2003 and 2008.
Two areas that are particularly important to victims and the bereaved are the charging decision and the victims personal statement.
