    People in Queensland who drive dangerously, evade police and cause death or grievous bodily harm could face 20 years in prison under proposed laws

    People in Queensland who drive dangerously, evade police and cause death or grievous bodily harm could face 20 years in prison under proposed laws


    The maximum penalty for dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death or grievous bodily harm will increase to 14 years, up from 10.

    Police Minister Mark Ryan said the new laws would send a "clear message' to anyone driving dangerously.
