Way too soft a punishment imo
In the moments after, Fagan lied to police and blamed it on “African men” she did not know.
What the fuck does that even mean?
If someone drives at that speed in the city, should be charged for murder, not just dangerous driving
Driving a car that fast in city it’s equivalent to shooting a gun in a crowded place and should carry the same consequences
78 kph/48 mph isn’t that fast honestly, I think the biggest problem was that she was fucking wasted. If you can’t keep your shit together at 50 miles an hour you probably shouldn’t be driving.

I recognize that, and maybe I’m just desensitized to it, but I live next to a road with a 30 mph speed limit and people blow by at 45 or 50 all day. Maybe the Australians are more desensitized to drunk driving than me, but I still think the bigger problem was her being wasted rather than speeding.
The fact you’re converting to mph makes me think you might not be familiar with speed laws in Australia and what the expected traffic speed is on the average street.
78 is very much too fast
35m stopping distance is quoted for 50km/h. 78 km/h is 65m, or 10 car lengths. from the standard calculator, which assumes normal, non inebriated reactions. This bloke is cooked.
On June 9, 2022, Fagan had been drinking when she drove erratically…
Fagan, who gave birth last month
That’s either a very poor life choice, or a very deliberate life choice for someone facing prison time.
The old Elisabeth Holmes playbook.
It’s weird how they talk about grandfather here without clarifying who is he a grandfather to (I thought it was her grandfather) and how grandfather is like a title or something. I would’ve expected it to be reported as “killed a year old man” or something
