1 year?  Try 3 months

Another violent crime, another light sentence.

Seventy-two-year-old Douglas Robinson was just waiting for a bus when he was attacked by a hot-tempered, tow-truck driver overcome with “road rage” at another motorist. The assault left Robinson a “shell of a man” and sparked a two-year spiral that ended with his death, court heard.

Yesterday, the truck driver, Guy Phinney, 34, was jailed for one year...Robinson landed in the hospital for six months on a ventilator, his heart stopped twice, he got pneumonia and when he was released wasn’t able to do much more than sit in a chair.
