TORONTO - Ontario Premier Doug Ford says his government will introduce legislation this fall to strengthen dangerous driving laws in honour of a father of three who was killed last month by an alleged dangerous driver.
Andrew Cristillo, 35, was killed Aug. 3 in a head-on crash in Whitchurch-Stouffville that also left his wife and their three young daughters injured.
The 18-year-old man charged in that crash is also the same person charged after a car hit an Ontario Provincial Police vehicle Ford was travelling in on Highway 401 in January.
Ford met today with Cristillo's family, along with the provincial transportation minister and solicitor general.
Family members are calling for the province to implement Andrew's Law, which would include revoking an accused person's licence until they go to trial and enacting lifetime driving bans for people convicted of extreme dangerous driving.
Ford says he agrees there should be immediate roadside suspensions for people charged with offences such as dangerous driving and impaired driving.
Cristillo's brother, Jordan Cristillo, says the crash was preventable and he wants to see Andrew's Law enacted so no other family has to feel the same pain.
