And a mistake in a broader sense - was it an avoidable accident? If it wasn't this barely feels like news, other than as a milestone.
Also... I don't see how her being homeless has anything to do with it.

I can think of a number of ways it may be relevant. In addition to what I said in this discussion, I left a comment about that here:
well, higher than average rates of substance abuse in the homeless population. other than that I'm not sure how it could be relevant or why the article mentioned it. we wouldn't know without an autopsy but being drunk could explain walking out into traffic.
It's unfortunate that this happened. But we do need take into context the situation and all factors involved.
