Justice Secretary Chris Grayling has visited the spot in South Gloucestershire where Ross and Claire Simons were killed by a drug driver. Ross and wife Clare died when their tandem bicycle was hit by Nicholas Lovell - who had already been disqualified from driving several times. Their devastated family met the Prime Minister last month.
Prime Minister David Cameron has written to the Justice Secretary outlining harsher sentences for dangerous driving, after meeting with the family of a couple from South Gloucestershire who were killed while riding their tandem bicycle.
The family of Ross and Clare Simons met with the Prime Minister last week as part of their campaign for tougher penalties. The couple died in January 2013 when disqualified driver Nicholas Lovell knocked them off their tandem in Hanham. He was jailed for 10 and a half years. Their families are campaigning for people to serve a separate sentence for each life taken.
David Cameron has now asked Justice Secretary Chris Grayling to consider the maximum 14-year sentence for death by dangerous driving.
