Don’t you just love how the driver was “likely speeding and ran a red light”, but the paragraph before blames pedestrians for not looking?🙄

I don’t know about Quebec, but hit-and-run drivers in Ontario don’t usually get anything more than a few weeks suspended license and no jail time.

Human drivers should also face heavier legal consequences. You can murder someone and if it’s with a car people just think “so sad, shit happens”.

Cars should never have been adopted and used so much, they’re terrible in many more ways than just killing tens of thousands of pedestrians every single year. For example… killing hundreds of thousands with their pollution every single year. And that’s just the beginning.
