I think this (felony-murder rule applied to driving on the street) is a very dangerous slippery slope.  What if you happen to "floor it" at a stoplight and someone decides to keep up with you and for some reason, THEY lose control.  Are you looking at manslaughter?  But I guess that's what juries are for.

I don't know all the details of what happened on Jamboree Rd that early morning.  The Porsche driver at a minimum should be charged for DUI and leaving the scene.  But unless he caused the Ferrari driver to crash, the Ferrari driver should be responsible for the death of himself and the injuries to the women riding with him.
