It’s irrelevant. We’re not talking about an accident. We’re talking about an intent to kill.

Intent must be proved, and depending on the circumstances, can be hard or easy. Using a gun carries with it an assumption of intent - unless you're hunting or target shooting, your intent can be assumed to not be good. With a car, there are a lot more things you could reasonably be doing, ill intent can't be assumed.

And I wasn't talking about this or any other specific case, just attempting to make sure that people understood the general legal concepts.

But do you know anyone who calls the time before sunrise broad daylight? I would call that dusk, wouldn't you? And is 2 am nighttime or morning?

especially if you use it to intentionally strike a pedestrian

There's that word again... One might think it's important...
