A deadly road rage on the M-30: when killing with a car can indeed be expensive
“Killing with a car is very cheap.” This is a phrase repeated by many relatives of traffic victims. Most fatal accidents, even if recklessness is proven, end with sentences of around 4 years in prison. Drivers are tried for crimes against road safety as no intentionality is perceived in deaths on the asphalt. But there are exceptions and sometimes justice “sees reason,” as relatives of those who have lost loved ones on the road would say, and a fatal traffic accident comes to be considered a homicide.
