Question

The defendant was driving five miles per hour over the speed limit on a rainy day, and that alone constitutes reckless driving

Since reckless driving is a low level misdemeanor, several other prosecutors are not so sure that it is enough to charge the
defendant with vehicular manslaughter.
Let's review two more concepts before you make another decision about this scene.
What is the concept of strict liability?
A person who is negligent or inattentive cannot be accused of a criminal violation.
A crime cannot occur if the accused is unaware that the action is criminal.
A person can only be accused of a crime if the public is aware of the violation.
The crime is defined by the act itself, irrespective of intent.
