Recklessness Is Criminal.
Homicides and murder are dealt
with forcibly. The record of homicides
as compared with motor vehicle fa
talities shows that a man who murders
with a gun is a little fellow as com
pared to the reckless driver who kills
with an automobile. Both should be
required to suffer the full consequences
i of the law. |
