Would you get behind the wheel of a car when drunk? Did you know that people have been given jail terms of up to 14 years for killing someone while driving drunk?
Would you use a mobile phone or send a text while driving a car? Did you know people have been given jail terms of up to 14 years for killing someone by texting while driving?
AIBU to think that it is the act of texting, or the act of driving drunk that is the responsibility of driver, and that whether or not their actions actually kill anyone is nothing to do with their judgement in making the original decision to drive dangerously?
AIBU to think there should be an offence of 'attempted death by dangerous driving' that also carries a jail sentence for anyone who deliberately engages in dangerous driving regardless of the fact they happened to have escaped without causing a terrible accident through no particular effort on their part?
