I never said never and in this case obviously hitting a copper is
punished much more severely than if it was an ordinary member of the
public.The fact remains that a majority of killers in cars are merely
charged with careless or dangerous driving, not manslaughter as it
should be.

There are also cases, unlike this one, where intent cannot be proved
cos there are no witnesses.

Do try to keep up, Filth.
