Driver Ryan McAndrew was sentenced to five years in prison for causing death by dangerous driving earlier this year.

Earlier this week a car was clocked by Fife’s road safety cameras doing 70 miles per hour on the opposite carriageway of the same road.

The previous day, the cameras also filmed a car doing what police described as “an unbelievable” 96 mph on 50 mph Queensferry Road, Dunfermline. Both drivers have been reported to Fife Police.

Gordon’s mum Wendy, who still places flowers at the spot where her son was mown down, made a heartfelt plea for drivers to slow down, before another child dies. “One child has already been killed on this road. How many more deaths does it take to get the message across? Why are people so ignorant and selfish?” she asked.

Fife’s Road Policing Inspector John McDonald expressed his disgust at the stupidity of such drivers. “Despite the publicity these terrible tragedies receive and the long-term suffering they cause for families and communities, some people think they are simply above the law. “Ryan McAndrew did not leave his home intending to kill anyone but a few seconds of recklessness was all it took to rob a child of his life and ruin his own future.

“Speed limits are put in place to ensure that if something unexpected happens, the driver can take the necessary action to avoid an accident. What hope would anyone have if a driver is bearing down on them doing twice the speed limit in a busy and built up area?”

Inspector McDonald reiterated anyone caught on camera doing such speeds would be pursued by the police and could lose their licence.
