Apparently they totally failed to check whether the dude might have violated the law that says you should not kill people by driving over them with your car, which he obviously did violate.
There's no law against driving over people with your car, nor a law against killing people in general. If there was, law-abiding citizens would be jailed for shooting someone breaking into their home, police would be arrested every time they exchanged gunfire in self-defense, doctors would face life in jail every time they made a mistake, etc., etc. And specific to vehicles, you'd face many years in jail when a kid suddenly runs out into the street, or someone commits suicide by semi-truck...
There are laws against murder, though. And manslaughter. The later might sound like it would fit, but the standard it requires is depraved indifferences to human life, and just having one brief slip-up while looking down at your GPS, adjusting your radio, etc., isn't enough to qualify, unless you really take it to extremes.
