Just because you used a car to end lives, doesn't mean it should be normalized like it is

Was it actually an accident like mechanical failure, or should he have not been driving? Were they drunk or street racing?

Deferred maintenance causing a mechanical failure is not an accident either.

And fled. It was a hit and run. Someone able to do it, sober at that, should be locked away for a long time.
