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.
