The widow of man who was killed when a lorry ploughed into his stranded car on a smart motorway has said the wrong person has been jailed, after the truck driver was given a 10-month long sentence.
Speaking to LBC’s Nick Ferrari Claire Mercer, who has led a prominent campaign against smart motorways, said her campaign was really “getting the message out there.”
She said many drivers were not aware of the concept and they were brought in through the backdoor.
Now Claire is campaigning for a Judicial Review into the introduction of smart motorways.
Claire told LBC that “every single driver is capable of a few minutes of distraction that is why we had hard shoulders.”
