At the least she should be convicted for manslaughter with a sentence in prison.

When one operates a vehicle they assume all of the risks and liabilities of their personal actions. Stupidity is not a defense for being stupid.

I would also like to point out the amazing difference between driving styles of those who are vigilant riders and those who are not. Riders (when in car or on a bike) have significantly more situational awareness and don't get distracted by things like text messaging, eating, etc. Those who do not ride usually have the phone to their ear, text, read, eating, etc. Part of this I think is due to the habit of not being able to access those things while you're on the bike.

People need to be deprived of these things while operating a vehicle. If this were doable I believe the number of collisions would drop tremendously.

My roommate is actually thinking about making a hand-held EMP/HERF that puts out a small enough discharge to only disable small electronics. Person on a cell-phone riding your tail? *KZZZEERRRRT* no more cell phone.
