☹️ this does not spark joy
As much as we’re not the US, it saddens me how much we permit cars to rule over our cities
A lawyer in Canberra killed a cyclist by driving too fast on an exit ramp and missing the road on three inside of the curve where the cycle lane is and where a cyclist was.
He was speeding, was likely drunk as he neither sought help for the cyclist nor turned himself in for several hours after the collision. All in all he was about the worst case of recklessly injuring someone and carelessly leaving them to die
He was fined a twenty thousandth of his salary

If we’re talking about Canberra, wait 'til you hear about Mike Hall. His killer didn’t face any punishment despite driving an unroadworthy vehicle and obviously not paying attention, to be able to not notice a cyclist in reflective clothing on a straight wide road. He was also probably speeding, but police used an outdated method of estimating speed which declared he wasn’t speeding.
