I think that she should have showed more remorse for what she did but that her sentence was fair. She was not drunk. She was not speeding much, if any. She was not driving like a complete asshole, she just wasn't as careful as she could have been. But she definitely didn't do anything that anyone would think could kill seven people. I've probably accidentally done worse things that would've killed people if a car had been there, but definitely not on purpose.
