sleeping on footpath is also illegal..... footpaths r made for walking... poor people sleeping on footpath is highly objectionable.... but who compel them to sleep on footpath
Politicians... to create vote bank, they r allowing peoples to stay in slum & on footpaths... Mumbai is already overburden with population...
if this situation continues.... people may sleep on roads in future...and it will be a nightmare for the drivers..

Does it mean that rash and drunken driving is justified? He may have hit people walking on the street too. Whether people stop sleeping on the footpath or not every Pereira needs to be punished to set a right example

dude read the post carefully..... law must punish drunken driver very severely.. but at the same time, Law must punish politician for current situation of the city and the peoples who r sleeping on the street..

Wishful Mr.Bhosle. I am with you about punishing the politicians part but when it comes to the next general elections I hope you are in the forefront to change the government and not simply make a point. If you don't vote and think that law will straighten things out well all I can say is you are living a deluded dream. Dream on ! But where matters can be decided by law as in Alistair's case, I think severity is the order of the day.

Do you always drive within 50 kmph??? Even if you are driving on a broad road with no traffic....I bet you dont...Simple argument would be that you too might hit someone and every someone like you should be punished as well

I don't understand why this question arises Anuj. Your point is irrelevant because Alistair drove his car up a footpath at 55 or 60 or whatever. For your info I don't drive a car on the footpath but the way you seem to be taking this it looks like you are familiar with that style of driving. So best of luck to you mate should you do this sometime and trample upon a few. Needless to say I would feel that 3 years would be too less for a crime like that.
