The tragic death of Kelly T'Hart in a hit-and-run incident has propelled her mother, Susan T'Hart, to campaign for tougher driving laws in Western Australia. After a drunk driver was charged with killing her daughter, the family was devastated to learn that this individual was permitted to drive again just two months later, inciting outrage within the community and particularly within the T'Hart family. Susan expressed the unbearable pain of losing Kelly, describing her daughter's compassionate nature and love for animals, making the circumstances of her death even more painful to accept.

The T'Hart family's ordeal has drawn significant attention to the current inadequacies in state driving laws, sparking discussions on the need for reforms that prevent charged drivers from resuming normal driving privileges. Alongside Road Safety Minister Reece Whitby, Susan has been vocal about the necessity for changes that would ensure individuals charged with serious driving offenses do not pose a threat to society, especially to families who are still grieving similar losses. This tragic incident has highlighted a systemic issue regarding public safety and the legal system's responses to offenses related to driving under the influence of alcohol.

As the campaign for tougher regulations gains momentum, it not only aims to honor Kelly's memory but also seeks to bring about significant changes that could prevent future tragedies. The advocacy of the T'Hart family illustrates a growing call for accountability and reform in how the judicial system deals with impaired driving and its consequences, highlighting a pressing need for change in Western Australia’s legal framework to protect citizens from similar heartbreaking experiences in the future.
