diamond - thanks for that information. Interesting to know that other places take the same view on endangering foetuses.

mandi, it looks like they're saying she was at fault for not leaving enough space between her and the car in front, which technically she should have but it seems an odd thing to prosecute for. I think it's an overall thing of not taking enough care given the fact she was carrying a baby. But I agree that surely it means the car that struck her should also pay blood money.
