Take for instance this case of a well heeled driver (in a Ferrari) who crosses double white lines and causes grievous harm to a motorcycle rider:
Mr Hosemans' vertebrae, sternum and right femur were fractured and he suffered a collapsed lung and ruptured bowel.
He was rushed to The Alfred hospital where he was put into an induced coma while doctors tried to flush out the toxins flowing through his bloodstream from his ruptured bowel.
"My kids came in, saw me hooked up to all the machines and were told there was no certainty I going to make it," he said.
With the driver of the Ferrari gets to make no apology to the rider, does not loose his licence and is otherwise unpunished
sound fair?
Now if it had been some lowly citizen hitting a Ferrari I bet it would not be like this
