Eight years for dangerous driving causing death a sobering sentence to those that profess to be professional drivers in Canada.

The Humboldt tragedy was suffering for mitigating positive outcomes to adjust to the horrific loss. The victims got one in the most severe sentence ever for dangerous driving, making a general deterrent to professional drivers.

Jaskirat Singh Sidhu is unlikely to appeal . If an error in law is found in the trial it would be a considerable contradiction in the attitude of regret expressed for the family to not cause more pain through more process.

So as the sun goes down on another tragedy, it remains that the best general deterrent is the sense of loss that comes from being responsible for other’s pain and suffering and the life long remorse of actions what could have been!

To him that did let me preen.

To them that suffered let them steam.

To those that stood by and watched, say no!

It changes nothing to take it back.
What's done is done and beyond your power.
Clear your slate and make a row.
To plant regret and hope to forget.
