        10 years for four lives. .. the driver will likely be out in six, perhaps less. I weep for injustice to that family

        While it is manslaughter and not murder, 10 years for four lives doesn't fit the crime. 5 years for each life taken.

        If they were on bikes, it would have only been a £50 fine.

        2.5 years for each life and the case took only 2 months. If they'd been on bikes case would take 4 years and he'd get a fine.

        Employers need to start being held responsible for employees actions on the roads too. @BBCBreaking

        no, employers can't be accountable for the world's stupidity. If you use your phone, this can happen.

        Exactly. Companies have a H&S responsibility for their employees why not for the general public?

        because people will still do it, because they don't care until something bad happens.
