The legal system is about justice, not revenge. Death by Dangerous driving has a much higher legal penalty attributed than Careless driving does, where it's the penalty for careless that you're complaining about. The difference here is intent, not the crime.

It does no good to anybody if you lock somebody up for years on end for careless driving when they're going to be a hundred times more careful after they're killed someone. The canoe couple wilfully and knowingly defrauded the insurance company and so received a higher sentence. Dangerous drivers wilfully and knowingly drive badly and so in the event of death the penalty that they can receive is much higher than what you're complaining about. This isn't class divide this is a mature and unbiased look at the uses and effects of the legal system.
