Why is this so noteworthy? The driver clearly murdered someone. Is it not the norm to be charged with murder there? I was expecting to read about someone who in some freak accident accidentally killed someone, not this deliberately turn towards and drive through them bull shit.
I think the outrage is due to the fact it was a cyclist. You can try driving round Paris and it'll take years off your life.
Cycling is a whole different story. Drivers respect cyclists and give them a wide berth; they won't overtake unless they can leave at least a metre. It's just the done thing
Damn right this cunt should have the book thrown at him
So it's less that the person rightfully was punished and more newsworthy that someone broke that code of conduct? That makes more sense. I think the modem news is making me more cynical than I would like.
Thanks for the insight!
Finally, appropriate charges for once!
carbrained bullshit from the guardian as usual. do they wanna cite statistics or even a source on "many motorists, however, resent the changes"? of course not, evidence-free bothsidesing of vehicular deaths it is
