Yeah and having an accident with your car may also kill people. Should that count as murder? You know, since apparently intention is irrelevant.
I think it already does
You don't know what you are talking about.
Ok
You should look up the definition of murder. Murder requires intent, otherwise it's manslaughter.
Not everywhere
Ok sure, but a fair justice system should differentiate between intentionally killing someone and accidentally causing a death, right? Giving the same punishment to someone who kills their spouse because they cheated vs. someone who lost control of their car and crashed into a pedestrian would be extremely weird.
Vehicular manslaughter under a variety of different names is a crime in many many maaaaannnny countries.
