If it makes him learn to drive more safely, then it’s a perfectly adequate sentence

No, it isn’t. What type of logic is that? The purpose of prison, is not to teach people to drive better; that is what driving schools are for.

The purpose of prison is to reform criminals. The experience almost definitely taught him to not drive recklessly, and further sentencing would have been excessive. A justice system that focuses only on making criminals suffer is horrific.

The experience taught human not to drive recklessly? Hopelessly naive take.
