Distraught he picked up his injured son, ran round the house to the car, and as he reversed off the drive, hit his other son who had just come home from playing with friends.
Should he have been punished for killing his sons?

Sounds a bit far fetched to me, any links?
I would say the first one was an accident who expects someone to be hiding in a hedge?
If the second was caused by dangerous driving then yes he should face charges.
