… unfortunately.
It’s unfortunate so many people were hurt
But I’d say he’s NOT being overcharged
Ironically, within the past couple of weeks, two recent fatal accidents took place only a block or so from the intersection where this knucklehead pulled this stunt. This could easily have turned into the third fatal accident. I drive through that area every Sunday, and I think I’ll take a different route for awhile. Too much bad karma on that stretch of US Route 1.
If one intersection is having an abnormal amount of accidents, then maybe a highway engineer should look into why. Of course my mind goes to a red light camera installed and the yellow light shortened to to increase the number of tickets issued.
Another entitled pickup operator.
In many cases, it may be due to bad highway design, but not in this case. The two previous accidents were essentially identical, namely young women who rear-ended tractor trailers and weren’t wearing seatbelts. They were just as stupid as this jerk in the pickup truck, but they weren’t as reckless–even though they wound up dead.
Red lights cameras work. I got one once. Never since. After that one I stopped trying to gun it. Frankly they should be out everywhere.
