very worrying 'causing death by careless driving' proposal
Worrying because its a long term, or not long enough?
I first read this and thought, what an incredibly short term.
With licences and the the car aside this is still manslaughter.
I am sure that carries a much heavier term than 12 weeks.
But, in the 1980's, drink drivers were treated so lightly,
because of their "diminished responibility" (they were drunk)
they got literally let off in some cases, but this is one thing that
I am glad has changed for the better. Still there is that diminished
responsibility though with alcohol? They should ban alcohol though
I think. Sorry, another one of my lead balloons there.
