If a UK national had been driving on the wrong side of the road in the USA and killed someone, then fled from justice to the UK, you can bet your last American dollar that Trump would have snapped his fingers and Boris would have handed the fugitive over instantly.

In a statement this morning, Chief Constable Nick Adderley from Northamptonshire police said “When I look back at how the police have dealt with this so far, I can say that if the circumstances remained the same and the same again happened, we would take the same course of action. I would not change the way that police have dealt with this to date.”
Police interviewed and breathalysed Anne Sacoolas, wife of an American diplomat at the scene, but did not arrest her. She left the country citing diplomatic immunity and has since admitted to driving on the wrong side of the road and hitting the teenage motorcyclist. |

She didn't have diplomatic immunity and was instructed not to leave the country.

It's not the point is it pp. It was an accident, so if she had stayed or not she wouldn't have faced jail, the family didn't want her to face jail. So getting a driving ban in a country you're not living in doesn't help anyone. Sacoolas will be living with the mistake that she knows killed someone for the rest of her life.

It's quite possible to drive dangerously and unintentionally. Such as a foreigner driving on the wrong side of the road.

Oh, she was driving dangerously ok. So dangerously that she killed someone. Then to cap it all she claimed diplomatic immunity (which she didn't have) and fled the country after assuring the police she wouldn't.

We talking about the incident itself. What you don't seem to appreciate is that people drive on the wrong side of the road accidentally all the time. It's just horrible timing and unfortunate coincidence that this time it ended in a fatality.

Look at any dash cam video compilation on you tube. Almost every one of them will include footage of someone driving on the wrong side of the road.

Driving on the wrong side of the road and killing someone is not an accident. Hopefully someone doesn't do the same to one of your family.

Common Examples of Dangerous Driving Dangerous driving is a very serious offence and the term can cover many different situations. Common examples of dangerous driving will include driving too fast on a busy road, driving on the wrong side of the road, driving with Faulty Brakes and driving with unsecured loads. If the police are charging that the driver’s vehicle is in a dangerous condition then they must prove that the driver was aware of this. This can also be proven if the dangerous condition of the vehicle would have been apparent to a competent driver. |

Causing death by dangerous driving, straight forward, being stupid shouldn't excuse it.

Manslaughter is technically an accident , you still do jail time. She should have been charged , convicted and jailed- you can't drive on the wrong side of the road, mow someone down and just bugger off facing no consequences

legally probably nothing but there are posters arguing on a moral basis she shouldnt be charged as she would receive a suspended sentence which isn't accurate either in law or on any basic level of morality.
