The man acquitted in a downtown Vancouver crash that claimed the life of a two-year-old girl will not face another trial after B.C.’s highest court dismissed an appeal from the Crown Friday.
if you think that not paying attention to the road and a light at an intersection you’re driving through at 47 km/h is normal then you need your license revoked. Missing a traffic signal once is missing a speed limit sign, its missing an exit, its accidentally parking on the wrong side of the road during street cleaning. It is not barreling through an intersection at full speed and not even braking until after you’ve already impacted something. This was not “one mistake” this was an intentional decision (distracted driving is not accodental) that has led to the death of a small child.
