    This person had also been drinking and didn’t have a license. They messed up as soon as they got in the car. But because they killed a person while they were in a car, they got off lightly, compared to if they had killed a person when outside of a car. Our mentality around driving is insane.

      Yep, driving with a suspended licence should be instant prison to begin with. If you’re not going to follow the rules, it’s the only way to keep you out of a 2 ton murder machine.
