We're not though. Drivers are allowed to kill as many people as they like as long as they're apologetic and weren't drinking; at most they pay a small fine.

We're responsible for the consequences of our actions regardless of what anyone else says, including the law.

Also, where I live that's manslaughter, a serious felony that can put you in jail.
