His life has been ruined for doing the job he chose to do. He wasn't some yahoo screaming around at speed in a motor for a laugh. He was a highly trained driver reacting to what he believed was an ongoing crime and because of choices he made he will have to live with the death of an innocent girl for evermore.

Do you think he didn't deserve to lose his job?
I'd say as a Police Officer and the fact that he's been found guilty, there's no choice for the police themselves to take his job off him.
You have to see it from the publics view.
He said that by the time he turned round to follow the car he couldn't see the car so put his foot down believing the driver was trying to get away from him. that was after he said before he didn't want to alert it.
If he thought that it was trying to get away, there was no reason to go into stealth mode. I think he helped to convict himself in a way.
