My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida
My minor child was driving a motorcycle home. My child had a green light when they approached an intersection. Another vehicle traveling in the opposite direction had a green light also but decided to make a left-hand turn right into my child's path causing them to hit, run over, and kill my child. An eye witness of the accident stated the 2 drivers did not seem to be speeding, and the investigator chose not to have a toxicology test done on the other driver because "they didn't smell like alcohol". Even though the other driver was found to be the at-fault driver, they are only being charged with Failing to Yield to the Right of Way.
My child lost their life as a result of someone committing an unlawful act. Can the at-fault driver be charged with Vehicular Homicide or Involuntary Manslaughter?
