Motorhome driver sentenced in fatal accident

There is a lot said about how bad the driver was, and how much more he should have been punished, how he was let off easy, and how bad he was for killing a person. I don't know any of the details, but I do know that section of road. It is normal for traffic to roll far above the speed limits, and it is crowded and rushed. Coming up on a problem in the road or on the side, it may well have been impossible for the driver to swerve or even slow quickly. When you are driving any big vehicle, MH or Truck, at traffic speeds with other vehicles around, in front and back, many less than ten feet from you, it is not like driving a car on open road. For the extent of the punishment, there may have been more involved.

As far as punishment, this happens every day in every state, and many innocent lives are lost, caused by drunk or distracted drivers. Most get off with a slap on the hand, or a letter to parents. You want to do something about that, its time to start. We see major accidents happen daily by drivers that have been arrested many times for the same drunk or distracted driving, and they are back on the road in the same condition the next day. so much for should not be allowed to ever drive again.
