Very alarming news indeed. Large vehicles going at high speeds in neighborhoods is a recipe for tragedy.
IMO MUCH harsher penalties is the only way forward. A start would be several years of jail time for someone who is speeding or in some way driving illegally who kills or injures a pedestrian--accident or not. Now the punishment is a month or so, loss of license and a fine, which is ridiculous.
