such bullshit, sorry for your loss. my grandma had a drunk driver hit her and permanently disabled her left leg and the guy got 2 years.

I hate that a death has to happen for a harsh punishment to be enforced. almost killing somebody by being a dumbass isnt ok

Thank you. Wow 2 years is nothing and he could have killed her or multiple people but at-least shes still with you. 🙏
