    If you are controlling machinery, and you fail to observe potential hazards and account for them, you are negligent.

    If the speed limit is a hundred gazillion but you can’t see enough to be able to stop for someone you are being homicidally reckless. It’s a limit not a target.

      the ute rolled over her at a low speed

      But to return back to something relevant; Yes. Controlling machinery does, in a way, imply controlling it. Very astute. This is why it’s fine to play in traffic without supervision, everyone’s in control.

      On a less sarcastic note, I hope y’all aren’t procreating. Or babysitting. Or even have a pet goldfish.
