Not equally bad, but I get the point.
IMHO, criminally; the teen should forego a driver's license and be on probation until age of majority. The father should face the same charge as he would for just allowing his daughter to drive without a permit, and suffer the appropriate punishment. The death was an accident that not even a permit would have helped avoid.
Civil damages should provide for the orphaned child through college.
The girl cannot be denied a driver's license when she reaches 16 because she broke no traffic laws.
