WE have a motorist falling asleep at the wheel killing a motorcyclist and he gets a six-month suspended sentence and a two-year ban with 300 hours community work.

Would this sentence have been the same if he had killed a pedestrian? I think not!

Some people think if you ride a motorcycle you deserve all you get.

My sympathy goes to the family of the motorcyclist.
