The answer

He has not heard of any official bodies for freeing slaves, nor does he know their prices. If the driver took all precautions and did not violate traffic laws, then he is not liable for anything. However, if there was negligence, he must offer two expiations for the deceased, which is fasting for two consecutive months. If he is unable to fast, scholars differ between the fasting remaining a debt upon him or feeding sixty poor people.
