Death penalty for fatal drunk/ careless driving 'accidents' is not unreasonable choice.
Do u agree?

The maths proof that speeding KILLS.
Use potential energy = kinetic energy, aka how high will a car fly if it hits a vertically projecting ramp @ given speed assuming zero braking, zero friction , earth gravity:
mgh= ½mv^2
Input speed(v)= 80kph, h is estimate 20+m.
Input speed is 120kph, h is estimate 45+m...
Therefore being head on hit by 80kph car is same as dropping the car on person from 20m high, hit by 120kph car is like a car dropped on person's head from 45+m high...
these drunkards who drive fast and kill people should not just be jailed/ fined: they should be stoned with the offending car. Those who drove @80kph should have car dropped on their heads from 20m high, those who killed @120kph will have car dropped on their head fr 45m high...
Even for those who killed @40kph will have car dropped on their heads from 5+m high and those @20kph from 1.25+m high.
I am not trying to be sensational hor: Dis is just equal justice based upon what the factual physics/mathematics says based upon the quantum of kinetic energy that was irresponsibly handled resulting in innocent person's death .
(Of course driver culpability for killing would be reduced if the victim was even more drunk/ actually trying to commit suicide by deliberately jumping into oncoming expressway traffic from behind a bush etc).
