This driver is clearly a total cunt, but please don't group all us drivers
together. It's like saying all priests are paedophiles.

I'm sure you'll find no one here who will defend or condone this driver
perverting the course of justice, driving like a twat, or drinking and
driving. Some will think he should have got longer inside, as the maximum
sentence for causing death by dangerous driving is 14 years.

Yes, I saw that and was going to post it, but you beat me to it. He
got 7 years. Average sentence for people convicted of manslaughter
over the period 1996-2004 was 61.4 months i.e. a shade over 5 years.

Oh dear, yet another of Bollen's toes bites the dust.

Not to mention a seven year driving ban - how many people convicted of
manslaughter in pub fights are banned from pubs after they've left prison?

Doubtless Gollum will accuse us of "cherry picking". Obviously, when
he posts one-off stories in which killer drivers get overly lenient
sentences, that is not cherry picking, but is instead providing
"typical examples".
