I can't believe the amount of people on here who think he should serve no time or that what he got was fair.
Two people are dead... seriously think about that for a moment.
Who cares how sad he feels, those two people will no longer live out there lives as perhaps they were supposed to.
He took away their lives because he's an idiot who thinks it's fun to drive fast.
If you're gonna be an idiot then fine, by all means do it somewhere where if you screw up and crash you're only going to kill yourself.
If you kill other people you damn well better go to prison.
And just to be clear, in circumstances where it is clear to be an accident, then obviously this does not apply.
But this was not, it was a second offence, and driving 60 in a 30 AND accelerating is a clear choice on his part and any resulting crash is his fault.
