> drivers who kill pedestrians or cyclists are largely not punished for it

You might want to qualify this with the part of the world you're speaking about (especially given the article is on a German site). For instance, in the Netherlands, given a collision between a motorized vehicle and an non motorized (pedestrian or bike), the motorized vehicle is automatically at fault (for liability and insurance purposes etc).

Everybody knows that the Netherlands has a strong distinction between manslaughter (or whatever they call it there) and murder. Intent matters; that is the point that was being communicated.
