Here is the problem. He was in a truck, it was his fault. That's it. As the story read:
Quote:
Thomas Lattimore, 37, of Ohio, was driving north on Mike Padgett Highway and had picked up a load from Federal Paperboard when he pulled over to the right in what Capt. Griffin called an "acceleration lane" to look at a map.
Hmmm...pulls over to the right, and that's where the "acceleration lane" is? On the right hand side? Where in this country is this?
Bull$hit. The cop blamed him because he was in a rig. The driver pulled over on what he thought was a shoulder...who in the heck puts a "acceleration lane" on the right hand side of the road?
The only thing he did was to stop, but their was no attempt involved...he didn't drive the mini van, he didn't kill the people inside.
Quote:
There were no skid marks on the ground that would indicate that Mrs. Dorn-George had time to apply the brakes, the captain said.
Hey, what if she did see the truck? Suicide, perhaps? Her death is clearly her fault, she hit him.
I hope he gets a good lawyer.
