That's dangerous driving causing death/manslaughter

Some of the penalties handed out are flaming disgraceful - some stupid drunk woman crashed while avoiding a stop point and killed someone, down here, not long ago and was initially sentenced to home detention - even on appeal she just got a year... having a lawyer for a father didn't mean anything - yeah, right!
IMO, texting while driving is just like driving while drunk and is comparable to recklessly discharging a firearm - chances are nothing will happen, but it it does the results can be devestating, especially to innocent people!
