Richard has sought a change in the
law in light of growing concerns over the number of deaths on South
Norfolk's roads.
Father-of-three Andrew Mason from Dickleburgh was killed when his motorcycle was hit by an elderly driver. Mr Mason's mother, Jennie and his widow, Mairi, asked for Richard's help. Richard arranged for Mrs Mason to meet top police road safety experts. He has now called for a change in the law.
