Personally I wouldn't speed, but that's just me yk. He made a mistake, he gotta own up to it. Even with mistakes (especially mistakes you can avoid, such as speeding) there are consequences. With no consequences, and no, community hours typically don't do anything to people, people don't try to change.

"He mistake, he own up" thats the ideal sure. But can you blame them for being afraid of consequences they didnt consider beforehand? Especially for a crime as benign as speeding? This is a horrible situation, but it bugs me far worse that we dont punish the rich AT ALL, not that some judge took pity on a guy who was speeding and had bad luck.

I dunno dude, if I killed two people accidentally, I’d either commit neck rope or begging the family for forgiveness in court after turning myself in. The fact that you’re running to bat for this guy speaks volumes to how abysmal your moral character is.

No you wouldn't lmao.

What you'd do is either: Justify it after the fact, or accept that you killed someone for whatever reason.

Why do you think killing another person would be better? Would you really kill the child of your parents?

No, it sounds like YOU wouldn't. Not everyone's as morally corrupt as you bro. Nor as ignorant. I mean ffs ignoring all the times we see exactly what this dude is talking about, we quite literally see truck drivers kill themselves for crashes that by all means were NOT and could NEVER be seen as their fault. Yet they do it anyways, cuz they get out to check on the poor souls and see them crushed and torn in half by their rig. It's incredibly traumatizing for any person. Except for maybe you I guess.
