- Adam Garrett of Wokingham, was seen necking pints and shots in a bar before he stumbled out drunk and went on to crash his van into three pedestrians. The 26-year-old was four times over the limit when he got into his white Ford transit van and crashed into Chris Redfern, 52, his wife, Cristina Di Carlo, 54, and Jeremy Rowson, 63, outside the French Horn restaurant on the B478 at around 11pm on May 5 last year. #Drink #Driving #vanlife

Only got four years in prison for causing life-changing injuries to three innocent people. That's a total miscarriage of justice.
It's CRIMINAL.
If he had ovaries he'd had got off.
See what happened to the Clifton Rapist Ron Evans?
Presumably he'll do just less than half of that sentence.
@@SagaciousFrank Yup. And be back on the streets drinking and driving.
Minimum 10 years in prison with no parole and lifetime ban..
need to find a prison that not bursting at the seams first
@@Azureecosse, they're bursting at the seams because justice in this country is so weak the scum of society aren't afraid of being banged up. Many consider it a privilege and a free stay in a hotel.
@@Azureecosse I very much doubt that you would be saying this had you or someone close to you been the victim.
@@Azureecosse Id rather pay for a new prison than the hotel bills of thousands of unwanted imports
This guy should permanently banned
Banned? He should spend the rest of his days in jail
from drinking
Gotta love you atheists and your compassion. Just ridiculous you people are nazis.
lmao
Should be banned from life
Sentencing outcome: "Adam Garrett, aged 26, of Loddon Bridge Road, Wokingham, was sentenced to four years in prison at Reading Crown Court yesterday (10/4). Garrett was also disqualified from driving for 12 years and will have to pass an extended re-test before regaining his licence". 4 years is literally a fecking insult to the three victims, this country is a joke these days! #TimeToRiseUp
A woke joke
They 😮 should lock up the judge for 4 years
Mclovin the mcmoron.. for someone that wants to use the word woke, you could wake up
What prison is local to Reading Court?
Lucky boy
I will say it again, i hate drivers under the influence.
The majority are white people over thousands of accidents and killed because of them.
Like your comment
What's your opinion on hunger and poverty?
That is not inclusive at all .
And I hate influencers under the driving
SHOULD NEVER EVER BE ALLOWED A LICENCE TO DRIVE EVER AGAIN.
100% agree👍. I do not understand why people like this get a second chance🤷♂️

He will drive without a licence !!!
@@samuellejohannes3988 True. But then he will go to prison. Again.
@@samuellejohannes3988 Then he will rarely be out of prison, problem solved either way.
Alcohol is the most destructive drug in the world
na, Herion is
@@loularton Not even close. Heroin is only destructive to the individual. Alcohol related innocents heavily outweigh cases relating to any other drug and it's not just harm to the individual but those around them, either direct or indirect.
@@audioxix Yes, you are right.
Agree. My hometown has a massive percentage of retired alcoholics.
Only because booze is legal almost everywhere and used on a grand scale. But heroin is undeniably more powerful/destructive on a per usage basis. For instance overdosing much more likely using heroin
This is what you get with the UKs pathetic weak laws, this guy should have be banned from driving for the rest of his life, and anyone caught with drink in their system should be banned for two years, I wish the government and MPs would start to grow a pair, it should be zero tolerance for drink drivers.
Pathetic weak willed judges, who always appear to let these murderers off too lightly. Even if he has had his driving licence removed - any odds he will be driving illegally at some point. He did not realise the result of his actions at the time; and all his lawyer is concerned about is getting him as light a sentence as possible using any old BS to achieve it.
@@charliebrown7904 Yep, rather sad.
It’s the west, most degenerate place on earth. What do you expect?
Though I agree with you in principle, in practice the country would have to pay to build more prisons and to staff them. I think large fines, though that is a tempting thought, would be unlikely to either defray the costs to any great extent, or not to have the also negative effect of pushing offenders' dependants ( including partners and innocent and, in some cases, very young offspring) into penury. This seems a very difficult, possibly insoluble problem; more severe laws and better enforcement - penalties for publicans / restauranters would also provoke an outcry. I'm not sure that it's fair to blame judges, though it's easy to regard them as culpable - they have to weigh up the ramifications and results of their judgements. The answers just aren't as easy as some are tempted to think. Don't get me wrong; I'm as disgusted by this footage as anybody - but it's not as simple as some think it is.
Did he go to prison? This is terrible what he did. Omg!! 😮
Just one of them spent more months in hospital than he will in prison...
My thoughts exactly!!......He's hardly going to 'PAY' for what he's done is he!!
I'd actually be surprised if he does ANY time behind bars at all!!
The poor victim will have a life sentence themself after receiving life changing injuries.
Maths clearly isn't your strong point
@@dickiemolitsanti2213 You realize you don't serve the full time your given right? Clearly having an IQ isn't your strong point.
How can that be right ? should have been given 10 years at the very least.
A pub near to my homes car park gets filled up every Thursday and Friday evening. Almost all cars are there from 17:00-23:30 and are all gone by midnight. There's no way in hell that's 20+ sober drivers going home, and there's no way tbe police cannot possibly not notice this too.
Exactly the same here. Drive home Saturday from work about 7pm, 30+ cars. Sunday at 5am on the way to work, 1/2 cars. Absolute joke.
Police should wait at the exit of the parking
Yes I see the same thing at the pub near my house, it would be easy for the police if they were around.
@@Thecommentator-hc1fz just put a toll gate with a rubiks cube. If you solve the cube, you can drive home. If you fail, your taxi will be here shortly, just listen for the siren.

The arrogance, sense of entitlement and willful disregard for the sanctity of human life demonstrated by this poor excuse of a man is truly sickening
Disbelievers never learn, ban alcohol, pubs and bars.
He’s under the influence you retard
@@Ibn_Abdulaziz Ban books, films and balloons too!!
Hate to point it out, but being extremely drunk removes a lot of willful regard and disregard towards anything, far too many problems are due to alcohol
All of which really increases with ever sip of alcohol. Ots how alcohol can chamge a persons thinking rather than it purely being the individual. Tje world gives us all the tools necessary for us to destroy ourselves.alcohol is simply a poison when abused.
If the bartender knows this so called man, and knows he drives should lose his job, because he’s assisted him, it looked like he even had a drink with him and gave him an high five!!
Probably the bar owner
So every person who has served alcohol to someone who ends up drink driving should lose their job? Makes sense 🤦♂️
How is the barman to know he would drink and drive?
If you read it properly, I said if he knows him, and ha had a drink with this man, so if he knew him he’s just as bad..
Exactly in my countre the bartender/owner can be held responsible if they give someone to much alcohol and tgen let him drive
40 years in prison.
Yeah right, he just having a laugh like uncle nugget.
Sad
Probably 2-4 max and banned for 24 months
You mean 4 years, that's what he has been sentenced to and a 12-year driving ban with an extended driving test for him to get his licence back!
@@NINJATH3ORY i didn't know his sentence, but i know how lax our criminal justice system is. Knowing that I'm surprised at the length of his driving ban tbh. He should have had a lot longer sentence for destroying three people's lives and fleeing the scene.
Anyone caught drink driving should automatically get a prison sentence
Do you know, that's so right...
Well thought out that, mate.
Not.
Do you think prisons are like Mary Poppins handbag?
Bar staff, bar managers and licensees have a responsibility too. The law says, 'You commit an offence as an establishment or as a staff member if you serve alcohol to a person who is drunk'. Not only did they serve alcohol, they drank with him. This is no doubt not the first time he's done it. He, as well as other repeat offenders or extremely drunk drivers, should never ever be allowed to have a licence again. Establishments should receive heavy fines if they continue serving or do not call the police if they think someone is going to drive. That pub looked quiet, it wasn't as if he was 'lost in the crowd' and no one noticed.
Guess he phoned in sick in the morning
then sacked that same day
with his work clothes as well. what a muppet
He got 4 years sentence and hes been banned for 12 year's from driving!
Too light a sentence.
And 100 to 1 he will drive whilst disqualified when he's released.
Typical
Liberal judges harming society once again. Nuffin new here
4 year sentence means that muppet will be out after 2
This driver is a selfish (I'll leave the rest to your imagination, can't say what I'm thinking because CZcams will delete the comment if I do).

Took me a second to realize that he wasn't driving on the wrong side of the road as well. So sorry for all the people he hurt. Best wishes from Canada.

We live next door to a pub and there’s a couple of people that park in the side road when they go drinking! All the neighbours know about it and have even reported them many times! The police don’t seem to care and said they’d need to catch them in the act!! They have the details, all they have to do is wait up the road and pull them when they see them ffs!! 🙄🙄
Ask them why they know there is a drunk driver and they aren't looking for them?
Record it. If you get the reg plate, and catch the drunk driving (and/or the drunks actually entering the vehicle), then surely that counts as "catching them in the act".
Tell the old bill you overheard one of them misgendering someone, that'll get them on the case.
Are they stumbling? Do they actually seem drunk? Or are you just a massive pain in the arse?
The police only do stuff that makes them money like speed fines. They don’t make money off drunk drivers so don’t bother. No care about what actually harms the public
Should be a ban for life. END OF!

“It was just alcohol”? Hope the Judge tells him “It’s only 20 years imprisonment”

A 20 year drink.
😅 Exactly 💯 The UK drunks are a bit different than US drunks. They start going to Pubs at 15-16yrs old. We have strict age laws in the US. 21 and over period no excuses.

i would also speak to the barman, indulging & careless attitude as he probably knew he was drinking driving, they seemed to know each other
A friendly barkeep means nothing. Do not take responsibility from the drinker. He is alone responsible for his actions and the minimum wage barkeep cannot be responsible for others actions.
How does the barman know if the punter is in a vehicle or not? None of his business. Down to the driver 100%. I don’t know why anyone would even attempt to drive after they literally fall onto the pavement outside the pub because they are paralytic.
Yeah nah you are one of those people that just loves it when you can blame someone for something so you contrive reasons why some innocent third party is also responsible just so you can get your fix.
In Scotland, at many pubs and clubs, the customer drinks, gives their car keys to the barman who calls a taxi. Then, the customer picks up his car the next day at some point.
@@manichairdo9265 problem solved 👏👏👏
He wasn't as think as you drunk he was..
should be jailed for life + pub should also be prosecuted for carrying on serving an intoxicated patron
jailed for life? who did he kill?
I understand u are prob as disgusted as me from watching that. Especially when he only got 4 years. But jailed for life? Maybe a bit steep. Also u feel 1 pub should be prosecuted for continuing to serve an intoxicated person. And what about all the other pubs? Dont stop there what about the shops who sold alcohol to people who ended up doing the same? Heck lets just charge the people who work in the distillerys
Bartender shouldn't have served him... And the pub should be punished also.
I'm the fool who has to rock up to deal with the carnage after such incidents and then liaise with families. It's not nice. 😐
imagine minding your own business, walking your dog after a long day work.
the next second your in the hospital for 8 months and the rest of your life traumatized
just devastated what one drunk man can cause
Pleaded guilty at the first opportunity. Sentenced to 4 years in prison, and a 12 year driving ban.
It should be a life ban from driving.
20 years in jail and life ban. Come on Tories, change some laws and some sod may just vote for you!
2:19 “ what have you taken “ from the film footage in the pub it looked like he took every thing they had to offer , he should have received 12 years imprisonment and a life ban from driving .

How does a bar person know if customer is a driver? They are not standing in doorway watching how customers are arriving.
they are hear , and comments saying the bartender does not know are nonsense , if you serve booze in the uk you are supposed to notify the law if you have any knowledge of criminal activity ;;
@@simongilbert2704 have you worked a bar in a busy crowded pub? You have no idea which of your customers is a driver unless you physically see them arriving……obviously if you KNOW they did then you can deny service
👍The bar tender shouldn’t even be serving anyone that many drinks, even if they’re not driving. Same goes for store clerks.
Why the Barperson here wouldn’t have a right to ask him if he’s drinking
I hope he's in prison now & banned from driving for life...?
I live across from a pub in Ireland, the amount of drink driving is ridiculous, the publican doesn’t as long as she gets money in. She actually bailed one driver after he was arrested for narrowly missing kids coming out of the school at 3pm on a Tuesday.
Now that is ridiculous. Drinking while drunk is extremely irresponsible, that's how you end up rat-arsed.
@@FBI_Agent_69420 😂I’ll have to do an Edit
New laws in California would make any bartender who overserves a clearly drunk customer AND allowes that customer to leave the bar both Criminally and Civilly Liable. That bartender would be in Big trouble in California.
We have something similar in Australia. Only I still think the bar tender is only 20% at fault, the person drinking is the main person at fault. Drunks are disgusting, they fight with those who try to help, kill other people & use drinking as the excuse 🤬 After losing two friends when young because of a drunk driver, to find out all the brothers have been arrested for drunk driving.

"Get in the back of the van!"
If the barkeeper knows, the guest will drive his car after the visit, he must stop him, when he's unfit for driving.
The barkeep shouldn't be serving up to that level of intoxication in the first place but is only duty bound to alert the police if they think someone over the limit intends to drive. I nearly had to wrestle a couple of spritzer girls out of a car before but never felt my minimum wage position merited taking on potential gangsters.
Why should the responsibility be on the barkeep? How many people do they serve, and to keep track. The onus is on the individual, take responsibility for one's actions. Also the law should heavily punish.
The buck stops with the perpetrator. He's a grown man who made a conscious decision to drink to excess and then drive.Reckless selfish behaviour and He deserves a serious prison sentence.
@@leed2883 They were sharing drinks with him and hardly looked rushed off their feet in there.
Part of that role is also to be responsible and observant. That's why we often utilise bartenders in our campaigns against women having their drinks spiked in public places. They see a lot.

drunk driving:
ban for 1 year,
second time ? ban for whole life,
3 rd time prison for 5 years.
4rd time prison for 15 years.
The problem is a legal system that reacts rather prevents.
Life in prison
So the van was parked in the pub car park?....the responsibilty of the staff should not stop the moment he left the building. They would have seen he had work clothes on. The share some of the blame.
yep, its the staffs fault. 😂😂😂
Me and the boys would drink in our work clothes after a long day. It's not the staffs responsibility to make sure that people won't drink and drive.
He should get life in prison without parole!
Ah one of those pubs that has flashing disco lights even during the daytime 😅

And rightly so, given the amount of damage it does.
@@Stinfoxc not true, given the damage is does it would have its own category, as no drug is as bad and as damaging as alcohol.

@@domc2909 would still be a lot less people drinking it as it would be a lot harder to get hold of, would stop a lot of people calling in at the pub after work and driving home just like this etc
@B88_f as much as I'd like alcohol banned, as with any other drug, prohibition doesnt work, history has showed us many times over. Any illegal substance i can order lands in my mailbox in 2 says. People will consume no matter the law, this way we can ensure its taxed, regulated and clean. The point is that the worst drug is legal and available in every pub, while other less damaging drugs, especially hallucinogens, get you jail time.
No justice , absolute insult
It’s very difficult for bartenders to discern when someone is getting shitpants drunk apparently.
Hopefully, the publican was prosecuted for allowing that to happen. Had they stopped serving him. Taken his keys. Called the police knowing he was too inebriated to drive. Shame on the driver. Shame on the publican!
Van manufacturer should also be prosecuted.
The pub staff serving him should be prosecuted whether they are driving or not you should not serve a clearly intoxicated person ,it's called vicarious liability
I agree, but they're not bothered about the consequences, they sell more drinks, they make more money.
No they shouldn't. He's the only one responsible. You should be prosecuted
So people should be punished for the actions of others? That makes absolutely no sense.

The Barman aided him ... he should be done as well for allowing him to drive ... 😡😡😡
It is not the job of bar staff to police the actions of others. How could they possibly keep track of who is drinking what in a crowded bar? How would they even know he had a van? How would bar staff stop someone from leaving the bar without resorting to force? Also that would mean people who had no car would be stopped from getting drunk as well. I'm sure the hospitality industry would just love that. As I said grown men and women are responsible for their own choices and actions and must face the consequences for them.
The barman has absolutely no responsibility for the choices of his patrons.
Judged before knowing all the facts, well done 🤷🏻♂️🙄
The absolute state of this 🤣🤣
How is the bartenderr supposed to know that he is driving. Nobody's even watching those cameras you muppet
The pub owners should have been sued and shut down for allowing to give him alcohol seeing he was already drunk. But what stops someone from buying 60 cans of beer in a supermarket? there should be quantity restriction per person in retail stores.
You can buy as much alcohol as you like evan from petrol stations, same with pain killers, energy drinks, pre workout. But cannabis is illegal.
What if you're buying drink for a party?
It's not the pubs or the retailers responsibility to moderate their customers drinking. It's up to the individual. Pubs are in business to serve alcohol, not to regulate people's lives.

The CCTV in the UK is incredible. Every camera capture every move and monuments the incident happened.
Like most days, English tradesman turn up to work at 10.00am, tools down at 2.00pm and straight to the pub and if it’s Friday then down to the pub on 11.00am. If the guys European then he most definitely learnt this from the very best Great British tradesman. No surprises here.
Although my comment may well be irrelevant to this video, but my comments are certainly a reflection of British society. Sometimes people need a mirror to be held back at them to show that we can all play that game.
Racially aggravated stereotyping and quite untrue. Keep your comments to yourself.
That's quite a sweeping statement! Perhaps it is a tradition that a lot of workers like to stop off at their local on the way home on a Friday night. It doesn't mean they are all drinking alcohol, or if they are, that they are over the limit when they drive home. The majority of people, regardless of where they come from, are not intent on getting drunk before they drive, whatever day of the week it is. We've all seen the devastation excess alcohol wreaks, and have no desire to follow that path. The scumbag in this video was one of a tiny minority who clearly have no care for the lives of others
@@davidthomas1339 The truth is a bitter pill to swallow especially when the shoe is on the other foot. This drunken lager lout behaviour is prevalent throughout the UK on most nights. During football matches this is amplified ten fold. The Europeans have clocked on and that is reason they don’t want any part of British tourism. You can cry in denial to the hills, but the truth is, as much as the Brits hate migrants the feeling towards the Brits is the same on the other side of the pond and legitimate too.

@@djstucit's not as straightforward as that. Everyone's reactions and ability are different when sober and everyone reacts to alcohol differently. I think the American's have it right here; a sobriety test is the way to go. No way it is fair that everyone has the same limit imposed on them, when some people still drive better after a couple of drinks than many who are sober.

@@djstuc what you think and what is reality is clearly different. I can drink 2 pint's of normal strength beer and still drive and that is the law. That's not a subjective thing as it's a fact and law says I can. I was stopped by the police once having had 1 glass of wine. I did the breath test once when the police stopped me and I passed meaning I was under the limit to drive. The thing is if you change the law to no alcohol, how do you stop people from still drink driving, maybe they'll do it more.
@@djstuc that depends whether it's a normal strength or weak strength beer. Don't tell me to do. If I want a beer and then drive it's up to me and my responsibility. You're like one of these people who want guns banned in California and wonder why there are still mass murders from guns because criminals don't follow the law. Or you want the 20 mph speed limit in all built up areas including main roads. Don't lump me in with this guy who has clearly had more than 10 pints, your arguement is pointless.
I don't think bartenders are entirely responsible, except in cases like this. How do you serve a patron more than 3 drinks and watch him drive away and claim no responsibility?
Is it true that the blood alcohol limit in the UK is 0.08?
Do UK pubs not have a responsible service of alcohol law?
No - they are not responsible for the choices a customer with free-will to choose makes. Neither are they responsible for him leaving in his vehicle.
We should have establishments where the car parks are electronically gated where the business can refuse to open the gates in an instance such as this.
In West Germany (as it was back then), I seen a guy clearly drunk, the landlord had already removed his car keys - German law permits this.
No. He's in control of what he drinks. Not them. Only him to blame
Yes, look at the 2003 licensing act.
TLDR: Pubs are only encouraged to prevent their patrons driving whilst over the limit, but do not appear to be allowed to physically prevent it.
I don’t really drink, I don’t particularly like alcohol. I had my first beer in almost a year just before watching this. Sent a chill down my spine hearing “you have no idea what you’ve done, do you?”
I poured out the rest of the beer.😂
That bartender is equally responsible.
No, unless the bartender had noticed how drunk he was and knew he was going to drive, he is NOT
Grown people are responsible for what they put in their own mouth.
In the state of California, new “dram shop” laws have gone into effect. Yes, the bartender who overserved a clearly drunk customer, AND allowed him to leave the bar, are both Criminally and Civilly Liable. That bartender would be in BIG trouble in California.

These three people survived but have to deal the rest of their lives with the mentally and physically consequences because of the actions from this man.
He should be in prison for a very long time. At least 10 years maybe longer and no parole in the first 10 years. He should never get his driver's licences back and he should attended therapy after detention.

Notice he's drinking on his own?
Glad I was not the presiding judge! 4 years lets put it this way his sentence would have reflected the offence/s. He wouldn't have seen the light of day for a very long time!
Bartender can be sued in US
if he could afford all that drink he could easy afford a taxi or bus home, no excuses, so many lives ruined including his own, kind of pathetic really.
So he will serve 2 years for doing this and then I bet he will do it again.
More people do this in the U.k. Than you'd imagine, they park a few hundred yards away then drive off after a skin full, it happens all over the country and nothing gets done about it.
That's a very polite police officer
What a coward hitting pedestrians in a van and driving away ..
That was chilling.
Just read about another one, he was doing 50ish mph in a 30 at a zebra crossing and killed a 75 year old guy and drove off, he only got six years prison and banned from driving for 8 years!!! Absolutely Shocking
That bartender is done 🤦♂️
Am I missing something ? It says he failed to stop , but his van is at the crash scene , but then there's footage of the police following him ? I'm confused 😕
He should spend 3 consectutive life sentences for 3 counts of attempted murder
"Just alcohol"... it is a HARD drug.
His sentence of four years is a joke. He should have got 15 years at least and should have been banned for life from driving.
as someone who got hit by a DUI driver as a child, I have a strong hatred towards alcohol and especially drunk drivers!
The Judge must serve the sentence he never gave - 20 years.
This reminds me of an incident Some years ago I went for work to a small town on the West Coast of Scotland, during the evening, I decided to have a look around Town and called in to a local paper shop, the headline by the local paper read, man caught drink driving, seven times over the legal limit, how on earth was he still conscious never mind able to drive, crazy 😮
Banned him from driving for life and at least 5 years in prison
How insane is it that you get 4 years for this . Absolutely mind boggling
