Just to reinforce this, Freakonomics did a "The Perfect Crime" podcast which talks about this very issue: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/the-perfect-crime-2/

IIRC, a VERY low percentage of people who kill a pedestrian are ever even charged (like 3%) with anything. In the vast majority of cases, there is negligence involved and everyone is just like "ok, you killed someone though your own negligences, but turns out there are no consequences for that"???
