I've opined before that driving illegally and crashing causing death automatically falls under the definition of manslaughter in law, so should be the mandatory charge. (One is performing an illegal act that results in death). That should make everyone think as that covers unregistered, unwarranted and unsafe vehicles and all actions that are illegal in law, including drunk driving, using a hand-held cellphone, driving outside your licence conditions and so on.
If any of those situations apply you simply shouldn't be on the road -period!
The problem with drink, (and drug), driving is that the offenders are almost invariably repeat and/or recidivist and they simply will not stop until they are physically prevented from driving/riding. Not only should drink driving carry mandatory and instant loss of licence on the first offence, also, and at the offender's expense should be mandatory attendance at an alcohol/drug rehabilitation program. Second offence mandatory prison sentence and the mandatory charge of manslaughter in the case of death. Injury should be "reckless use causing injury" in addition with the maximum penalty the norm rather than never used.
You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
