The bikers are dead because of her stupidity, how do you think their families feel now?.

The woman who triggered a deadly collision near Montreal when she stopped to help a family of ducks cross the road is appealing her conviction.
Last month, a jury found Emma Czornobaj, 25, guilty of dangerous driving causing death and criminal negligence causing the deaths of motorcyclist Andre Roy, 50, and his daughter Jessie, 16.
The father and daughter were hurtled into the air after they rear-ended Czornobaj's car that had been parked in the left lane of Highway 30, just outside of Montreal in Candiac, Que., on June 27, 2010.
The trial heard that Czornobaj, who was driving a Honda Civic, stopped her car, got out and crouched over the ducks, gesturing for them to move, when the motorcyclists slammed into her car. The man and the teen died on impact.
Czornobaj told the court that she was trying to rescue the eight ducks.
The court heard that Czornobaj, who had three years of driving experience, did not put on her hazard lights when she stopped her car.
On Monday, Czornobaj filed papers to appeal the conviction.
Her sentencing hearing was due to start Aug. 8.
The maximum sentence for dangerous driving causing death is 14 years in prison.
More than 12,000 people have signed an online petition to keep Czornobaj out of prison and asking Quebec's justice minister to recommend the "least severe sentence possible."

As a former rider I agree with the verdict.
Shut down a 4 lane highway for ducks? Stupid
Stopping in the left hand lane without turning on 4 way flashers? Criminally stupid.
"More than 12,000 people have signed an online petition to keep Czornobaj out of prison and asking Quebec's justice minister to recommend the "least severe sentence possible." " : They should also ask the justice minister to repeal the death sentence that Andre and Jessie Roy got because of her stupidity.

Roadkill is a fact of life, but it's supposed to be animals, not people
Gotta agree with you, Silvio.
Anybody who values ducks above humans has wrong priorities. Two people are dead, due to criminal stupidity, as you put it. Her sentence reflects that, and sends a message to other drivers who may think they're being kind to animals when in fact their behaviour is highly dangerous to humans.
Same thing goes for reflexively swerving to avoid an animal . . . although those drivers often suffer a different penalty when their car hits the ditch, rolls over and they end up with massive injuries, or simply dead.
