Three lives equals one year??????

Come on, man.............
I don't get it either. The justice system in many places tend to go easy on people that don't intentionally hurt someone. Even though it's your choice to drink, drive, and in many cases speed, if your intent was never to hurt anyone, they go easy on you. IMO, if you act reckless, you should be punished. People know better, but do it anyway. I'm speaking as someone that drinks quite a lot. If it's easy for me, why is it hard for others? That's what bothers me.
