It would not justify it, you just like the excuse because you tend to do similar things. You are not entitled to murder others, especially those who aren’t responsible for your situation, in order to satisfy your “needs”. Cannibalism doesn’t magically become acceptable because you’re starving.
Pretty weird that you’re baselessly accusing this person of doing similar things just for asking whether or not she’s doing this in the absence of a viable transportation alternative.
Like why are people on this site such dicks? It’s way past Reddit levels of snark and it just makes for a shitty experience here. It’s like hanging out with a bunch of jaded and snarky IT guys.
I’m no fan of shitty drivers and I think if we live in a world where license suspensions are a thing, that’s fine but don’t be surprised when stuff like this happens when public transit sucks. It may exist but there’s a reason why a lot of folks prefer their car over poorly funded public transit.
If your job is indirectly about murdering people, you’re just a soldier and this is war. It is the Nuremberg defense, the “I was just following orders” excuse.

Have you thought about why public transit is poorly funded and developed?

Because the automotive industry actively dismantled it in the early twentieth century and then lobbied ever since to redirect funding to highway maintenance? The largest single government project in existence in the US National Highway System.
Some people, when given a choice between cannibalism and dying of starvation will choose the former. The ones that do may choose to regret it, but they are alive to have the capacity to regret.
At the point that you are struggling to survive, any society that does not immediately render aid is no society at all (not to you), and is either an enemy, taking resources you need, or prey.
I find it unfathomable that people imagine that poor people and untermenschen should just resign themselves to dying off. It explains why the working class might resort to terror attacks to assert their right to exist.

Oh, wow, that’s so comforting to know: the monster feel a tinge of guilt. So, are you ready to die for someone else’s character development (best case)?

The least one can do is understand the class war. You don’t punch down or to the side. You don’t do reverse-Robin-hood.
Aside from that, if all that’s left of this species is monsters, there’s no point to it.
Does she need to work? Is commuting my public transit intolerably slower than driving a car?
It would justify the behavior.

Justify? Maybe not. But explain? Yes.
Need money but have to waste time working? That justifys theft.
