I agree that she should be punished, but the people automatically making a story out of her being wealthy are ridiculous.

The parents afforded her private school tuition.
She was driving her parents' Benz.
I think it's safe to say that the Mr. and Mrs. have some money.

My parents paid for all my school, half my friends drive bmw's or range rovers. The large majority are very ethical, generous and responsible people.

I feel horribly bad for the mother who got kill by this stupid girl.
To put it in a harsh way, if she wanted to kill herself, she might as well crash into a tree, because then she won't kill others but herself....

- slitting your wrists
- overdose
- jumping off a building
- self-inflicted gunshot
- carbon monoxide poisoning
- drinking Drano
The list of alternate suicide methods goes on and on. If she wanted to take her own life, she should have put some thought into it so that she did not endanger the safety of others.

That reminds me I heard about a list that came out a long time ago about 100 ways to suicide. And while I never saw the list, I heard it was quite disturbing. And it reminds me this Japanese documentary called the "Suicidal Circle" where you see Japanese people go on message boards, meet with internet members all collectively suicide all together.
But nonetheless...I don't understand why people suicide, especially with such silly things like this. If you have the courage to suicide, then why not have the courage to face it?

Because suicide is the ultimate act of selfishness and cowardice - they don't have the courage to face their problems, and they think that the world they live in revolves around them. (this would be the Catholic in me speaking I guess)
It is very rare that you can label suicide courageous, or even noble - and those examples standout because they break the mold because of their altruistic and/or courageous nature.

depression
Usually when people are committing suicide they are in an irrational state, and therefore considering alternative ways to kill oneself is the last thing on his/her mind. People of all social and religious backgrounds suffer from depression. It doesn’t make what happen excusable. She should still have some consequence for her actions but she also needs professional help.

It may sound heartless, but the young woman didn't die, so this is a case of murder -- not suicide.
Attempted suicide perhaps.

no kidding.
Geez. That's messed up that she killed some other person who had nothing to do with her or her issues. The very least she could have done was drive her car off a cliff or something if she insisted on doing it in her car.
