I am so *^&*()( sick of drivers saying "oops! Sorry, didn't see you!" or "oops! I was busy downloading ringtones! Sorry you're dead!"
Our State's Attorney has decided that well, just not paying attention and swerving off the road and killing somebody isn't really *that* bad... we have to expect these things. Our local driver who was downloading ringtones and killed a cyclist in Sept. is still going to be out there, driving... oh, with another ticket (she already had three... in 17 months...).
They should at least have to drive a vehicle emblazoned with "CAUTION: THIS DRIVER IS DEADLY."
(many commenters said "this was an ACCIDENT. It's a hilly road. I'm sorry, there are simply TOO MANY of them to write off and say "oh, it's a pity, but move on!" I don't want to draw and quarter anybody, either...)
