I thought you'd enjoy this one jegs.
I hope they ban cars after about 5pm. Just too risky cos a drunk person might get in one.I say go one step further, ban cars full stop, push bikes only, no e-bikes, pedal power!

@taniwharugby Still too dangerous. Walking only, fully kitted out in bubble wrap.

@mokey itd take me too long to walk to work, even if I ran at a decent pace I'd have to leave home at 0600 to be here for 0830, then I'd not be home until 1930...but I guess htink of the lives it saves and the benefits for the environment...

I have to travel to Masterton for work on Wednesday. If I leave at lunchtime I should make it.
I'd better pack some SPF. She's a hot one.

@jegga anytime you drive a vehicle while under the influence and crash, it should never be considered an 'accident'
If someone was out hunting while under the influence and accidentally shot another person, would that still be deemed an accident and therefore be granted home d?

Yeah much different story if she had stopped and called emergency services. For all she knew had the emergency services attended earlier they might have been able to save him.

I don't condone death threats, but she really should have thought about her actions. Those Instagram posts were in such poor taste, any sympathy let right then and there

The lawyers and the judge are all working within the framework of the law. I don't doubt the judge could have put a harsher sentence on her... but still not that harsh. Little actually made an OK comment that the law hasn't been reviewed in a long time so maybe it should be. I agree, I'd like to see way fucking tougher sentences for reckless driving like this.

The only punishment she is likely to face is a little cyber outrage. Even that won't last, as people move to the next thing

@no-quarter yeah nah...in my old job I used to see Judges summing of cases in relation to charges following a Motor Accident (some fatal) and it would seem many motor 'incidents' seem to be looked at in a different light than similar result from non-motor incidents...as per the Lawyer statement 'it was an accident' regardless of being under the influence, where it should not be an accident (although that might where you are correct in that as it involved a vehicle, it is deemed a motor 'accident')
Worst one I saw (as mentioned earlier) was from a fatality, a dude and his mate had been racing and overtaking have hit and killed a guy on his way home from a Tangi...Judge said he felt Home Detention was harder for him than prison time due to being a prisoner in your own home (with fridge of food, alcohol, TV, Sky, PS$/Xbow, mates visit etc)
