Passing on a hill, a “No Passing Zone”. Pure stupidity. She deserves the full sentence for manslaughter and restitution penalty she will never be able to get out from under!
Where ever it happened, a person is still dead. The vehicle driver must have been blind, to not see the 8 inch headlight on the motorcycle.
