Here in NY the law states you must have control of your vehicle at all times. Since the speeding street racer didnt regaurdless of the girl who didnt have the right of way, he still hit her. If he was going the posted speed limit, chances are he would avoid hitting her or killing her.
Now what about this. If it was a person crossing the street, would it be the persons fault for crossing? Well pedestrians have the right away, right? So you tell me what difference it would have made? None.
They are guilty as charge and hope they serve their time.
