That is bonkers

Are they suggesting that if I run someone over in a pub car park I cannot be convicted of anything?

I was trying to work out how it was private land and seems to be she was on the driveway in front of her gran's house and the driver was trying to turn around or something, accelerated instead of braked and hit her. Mad that being on the driveway is enough to count as it happening on private land when the driver was coming off a public road.

When a driver comes off the road and hits someone's house they seem to be done for dangerous or careless driving at the least. How is that different.
