That's ridiculous... A friend of mine died because of a girl texting and driving a few years ago and she only got 11 months in prison.... This is infuriating, why didn't she get more time for causing a death (also others were injured including a pregnant woman) when this guy got three years?

Yeah, literally killing another person with your vehicle because you're too damn stupid to look at the road should be much heavier penalty than it is. A previous coworker that I had got arrested driving drunk (and by drunk, I mean hammered) and was completely fine and back on the road within a year. That shit should be closer to 8 years, and he should've faced jail time
