It is now over three years since Andys death.In April 2011,Jean-Baptiste Brosset,plead guilty to causing Andys death by dangerous driving and received 200hrs community service and a driving ban for 18 months.We could not believe the sentence.He walked free from court that day,and shortly afterwards returned home to France where his driving ban was not in force.We as a family have fought on for justice for Andy,taking our case all the way to the Houses of Parliament in London where we forced an adjournment debate live on television.You can see the full debate here, http://news.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/hi/house_of_commons/newsid_9736000/9736188.stm We had a meeting with the transport minister shortly after this debate was aired,where we put to him suggestions on how we can control foreign drivers entering the UK to have a device fitted in their vehicles to tell them the correct side of the road to be on whilst in this country.He promised to look into this carefully and we will again meet him in the near future,we are not prepared to let this go…..ever.We don’t just fight on for justice for Andy,but for all our loved ones we have lost,and we will never stop until the government takes extreme measures to protect us all .In June 2011,we held a memorial dance for Andy to raise money for BRAKE,we followed this on with another dance in August 2012 and August 2013.We have also created a permanent memorial to Andy at the site of the accident and it is visited by many people.We hope Andy can now rest in peace.Sadly,Andys beloved Grandfather Eric, passed away in February 2013,still determined to see justice for his grandson until his death,they are now buried together and lie at peace until we meet them again.
