She was clearly negligent in her responsibilities as the operator of a motor vehicle, directly resulting in the death of another human being. If she was drunk she’d be going away for a **_LONG_** time. But she was “just” painting her nails, so it’s all okay!?! The result is the same, the punishment should be as well.
