A man turned himself into investigators on Sunday after fatally striking a bicyclist on a highway, then leaving the scene, according to Oregon State Police.
Honestly you could do a lot by simply charging people the same as non car related crimes. Like if you or I got pissed/trashed/inebriated and killed a person we would get a totally different outcome if the tool used was a brick or a car.
Most times (at least around these parts I am) manslaughter hardly ever gets applied. They seem to treat it as an unrelated death. Jim has an “accident” and sadly Sue has passed away. Maybe if the police are feeling frisky we might get an “unsafe operation of a motor vehicle”.
