How is it fair to get more than actual murderers? I get that this is "up to 20 years" but I don't see how more than a few months for a victimless crime would be fair.

Yes it could have been worse, but he deliberately crashed in a desert and it wasn't actually worse. So let's judge him by what happened, not by what could have happened.

So is drunk driving a victimless crime?

>>pupppe+Q
People don't get 20 years for it unless there is harm done or aggravating factors.

You don't get punished for murders you didn't commit even when drunk driving. Actually, you usually don't even go to prison for drunk driving if you haven't hurt anyone, so if anything it proves my point.

So the argument that I keep seeing in this thread that it could've led to death so he deserves to get his life ruined by a 20 years sentence or whatever doesn't make sense to me
