A lawyer has called for action to stop the 'river of blood' resulting from road accidents involving US personnel near US bases in Britain.
Radd Seiger, who represents the family of Harry Dunn and latest crash victim Elizabeth Donowho, has revealed he is dealing with more than ten new cases among 'thousands'.
Motorcyclist Dunn, 19, died in August 2019 when he was hit by a car driven by former US spy Anne Sacoolas outside RAF Croughton, a US military base in Northamptonshire.
Meanwhile, 56-year-old nurse Mrs Donowho was left unable to walk in July after a serious collision with US citizen Isaac Calderon, who had been visiting an SAS base in Herefordshire.
The suspected US spy – who was due to appear in court on December 1 – has sparked outrage by leaving Britain after the crash. He was reportedly tracked down to his parents' home in Texas.

West Mercia Police are said to have told Ms Donowho that Calderon was 'associated with the Secret Service'.
There was a similar extradition row following Mr Dunn's death after his killer, Sacoolas, fled the UK using diplomatic immunity.
She later pleaded guilty from the US via video link and was sentenced to eight months in prison, suspended for 12 months, after a determined three-year fight by Mr Dunn's loved ones.
Mr. Seiger told it The mirror that a number of further cases have 'come out of the closet' since Mr Dunn's tragic death.
He said: 'Harry Dunn was certainly not the first victim of terrible American driving, and tragically not the last. It is (the British and American authorities') first duty to keep us safe, and they have failed Harry's family, Elizabeth and thousands of others.
Mr Seiger said he has called for a public inquiry into the “absolute scandal”, adding: “Something must be done now to stop the river of blood flowing on the roads outside US bases, and both governments must be held accountable. '
He said that James Cleverly, then secretary of state, had assured him that no American would flee as Sacoolas did.
But now Isaac Calderon is the latest to leave Britain The United States while an accident was being investigated.
The 22-year-old, who is wanted by West Mercia Police, was due to appear at Kidderminster Magistrates' Court on December 1 charged with causing serious injury to Ms Donowho by dangerous driving.
Sky News reported on Wednesday that he is now back living with his parents in his hometown of Humble, Texas.
Elizabeth Donowho, a 56-year-old nurse, was left unable to walk after a serious collision with US citizen Isaac Calderon, who had been visiting an SAS base in Herefordshire.
Ms Donowho, from Malvern, Worcestershire, told Sky News she was 'glad Mr Calderon has been found' and wanted him to 'face our justice system as soon as possible'.
She previously said she suffered “multiple fractures” during the collision, including to her sternum, right hand and both ankles.
Calderon, who Ms Donowho said was described by police as a 'flight risk', was able to leave Britain on a commercial flight on November 25 and return to Houston, Texas.
West Mercia Police told Ms Donowho that before the crash on the A4103 near Shucknall in Herefordshire on July 31, Calderon had been carrying out work 'in connection with the Secret Service' and had worked on matters 'which may fall under the Official Secrets Act' .
Mr. Calderon also reportedly said that his son is part of the U.S. National Guard and serves “a few weeks a year.”
He said his son would not be able to discuss the matter further as he is seeking legal advice, claiming they had not heard from US or UK authorities recently.
At his home in Humble, Calderon's father, Manuel, confirmed his son lives there and claimed the incident has been “blown out of proportion.”
Calderon reportedly said his son had been in Britain on a work visa and had recently worked in a warehouse, although he could not remember the name of the company.
According to Sky News, he said he paid for his son to fly home because he was “struggling to earn a living”, and was able to seek further medical treatment after the collision.
