Same rules should apply here. She performed a traffic violation which resulted in the death of another human being. She should be charged. I really don't understand how people are even arguing otherwise.
Yeah, I'm not understanding the distinction. If he had been driving a Smart Car instead of a motorcycle, would we then be saying "Well, if he were only driving an Escalade he'd still be alive, so he bears some responsibility here."
If you punch a guy with a neurological condition, and it's a punch that ordinarily wouldn't cause anyone's death, but he does die as a result, you're still responsible for his death. You take a person as you find them.
