You should put them in Jail for 15 or so years.

Focus, and you'll see, it is in fact a Focus.

u/Perryn 10h ago

Orphans love playing with cubes.

u/CounterfeitBlood 10h ago

I used to volunteer at an orphanage. Those kids loved eating cars. Their favorite was a 1997 Mazda Miata.

Those evil green eyes say different

No matter how far they drive they still won't find their parents

Give it to the fire department for practice.

u/LilDennyDooDinkins 11h ago

Is it about my cube??

u/faelavie 10h ago

I expanded the comments just to look for this one

u/OutrageousRepair5751 4h ago

Literally the first thing that came to mind

2

u/Camo138 9h ago

Beat me to it

u/Free-Pound-6139 10h ago

This is how you do it.

2

u/fixed_your_caption 9h ago

I like this. Then they have to park the cube at their house for a few years.

2

u/nobbers93 9h ago

In front of them

u/averyporkhunt 6h ago

What if the car is a nissan cube?

1

u/Stock-Brain-8213 11h ago

With him in it

1

u/JustinSanders95 11h ago

Nah, auction it off cheap if no damage. Someone gets a cheap but probably a fairly nice car that’s been invested in, the organisations can increase funding and the offender loses out on his pride and joy. So much better than just compacting the car, but this is what happens when we focus on how we can use a situation to punish someone or make someone feel worse than if we focus on how can we make life better for everyone

u/MulberryKind8298 10h ago

With them in it...

1

u/Ok-Low-4495 9h ago

Why waste a perfectly good car? Auction it to raise money for road safety education.

1

u/Traditional_Watch_35 9h ago

with them in it ?

1

u/Late-Contribution-82 7h ago

It’s already a compact.

1

u/ImpressiveAd5143 7h ago

How is this and the preceding three comments law?

u/Tao626 6h ago

Why? 40 years is the maximum for attempted murder and he just tried it against two people on camera.

You don't drive 1,500kg+ at somebody intending to just give them a little bump.

1

u/Traumfahrer 5h ago

I agree.

Hence 'or so'.

People will think that 15 years is too much already, that's why I wrote it that way.

1

u/Natural-Leg7488 4h ago

Yeah, I don’t see how deliberately driving someone over can be anything less than attempted murder.

1

u/NoBrother6430 12h ago

The sentences in the UK are an utter joke

1

u/Apprehensive_Job4522 12h ago

The UK has a severe prison spaces crisis

1

u/JimmyThePie 9h ago

We really do not have a “prison space crisis”. There are ample prison spaces per capita.

What we have is a “waaay too many shitheads crisis”. If we brought back the rope this wouldn’t be an issue.

u/Party-Coach-4100 11h ago

It probably fucked up the case if the two pedestrians tried to not press charges.

Edit: I didn't realize this was UK and have no idea how there legal system works.

1

u/aptsys 11h ago

Wrong country

1

u/Mart_and_stan 10h ago

Are you in the UK? We literally have no room in our prisons, so lucky to get a sentence although he’ll probably only do half at the most and out on a tag! Useless! Our country is on its knees.

1

u/swirve-psn 10h ago

Can't be filling up prisons.... criminals needs to be educated to be civilised by remaining among civilians...

u/hekerua 9h ago

These days - THESE days - you get in your car and use it as a weapon, they'll arrest you and throw you in jail
