        I wonder if they would have used the same tone in the article had he killed or seriously injured someone.

        c'mon, rsprake, people don't kill people, cars kill peop... wait... cars don't kill people, peopl... ok, I know somehow he wouldn't be at fault, I just can't put my finger on it.

        Depends on the someone he killed or injured.  If it was a cyclist, the tone would be something along the lines of "Scofflaw cyclist killed despite driver's heroic effort to stop his car with his feet."
