    I imagine that car deaths are not a “fact of life” in Europe as they are in the US, so he can actually get some punishment.

      Yes they are, it’s horrible.

      If you kill a bicyclist standing on the bus lane with your car going nearly 3 times the speed limit, you will receive a one year suspended sentence and lose your license for 16 months in Germany.
