>>996006Thou can either be selfish and right, and these kids end up dead, or you can accept part of the 'relatities of the road' includes people fucking up, doing things wrong, or being where they aren't supposed to be, and 'walk on eggs shells' for them and these kids would be alive. If they had time to look at their fucking SHADOWS she could have easily had time to do something to prevent their deaths.
She turned a shitty potentially dangerous situation; the retarded decision to ride high with no lights after dark, into a certainly dangerous one by being inattentive.
This wasn't a case where she *just* turned on the road they were on, or a t-bone situation, right? If that's the case, no excuse. If you're driving, it's your responsibility to pay more attention than some random other person. Tough shit.
I'm sure it's horrible for that woman and I'm not trying to discount at all how shitty a decision it is to bike like that, but c'mon.
Part of the reason it's illegal to tailgate is because of how dangerous it is because someone *else* might do something stupid, and yet no one has a problem with that being on the books.
