Driver was charged for the drugs, not the act.

Still hunting season on cyclists. No "bag limit" if you are driving a car.

Can anyone honestly find a case where a motorist was charged for killing a cyclist when no drugs or alcohol or even a cell phone was involved? Seems like there is always a "get out of jail card" for killing cyclists.

Here is a classic case... http://kcbike.info/2008/07/16/johnso...-gaunt-deaths/
just remember the defense:
It was, he said, his driving style.
