Revoking driver licenses for killers, for longer periods

For years I've opined here that drivers who kill other people through recklessness should lose their driver licenses permanently.  Because as it stands, drivers might get jail time (if that), but usually don't lose their driving privileges, and even if they do, it's for a relatively short period of time.  KXAN reports that someone convicted of intoxication manslaughter faces up to 20 years in prison, but only 2 years of losing their license.

Austinite Tanya Roberts is now pushing for longer de-licensing periods, following the death of her son Colton who was killed by an impaired driver.
