Re: 鈥淭ruck driver in Broncos crash pleads guilty to all 29 charges,鈥 Jan. 9.
This accident is heartbreaking, given the resulting deaths and injuries. It should be kept in mind that it was an accident, an unintentional event that probably could have been prevented had there been better road signs.
The article states that the driver killed 16 people, and the maximum penalty for dangerous driving causing death is 14 years.
The driver is not a killer; he had no intention of causing the accident, and this should be remembered. It was simply an ill-fated event that will haunt many for the rest of their lives.
