Title's been changed. And the man is now the "alleged driver."
On the plus side for this instance, it now blames the car. Which, if he'd been on a bicycle she'd be alive, so.
I guess if you have to be killed by a car, asleep is the best way to go.
Is it better that it blames the car than the driver? I think it ~~would~~ should blame who or whatever truly is at fault.
I just meant this is "Fuck Cars" but yes it's most likely driver error.
Gotcha, yeah. Agreed.
I'm sure if she would have worn some reflective clothing it would be a different story.
"It is not uncommon for cars to crash into houses..."
Why do they keep building homes where cars drive?! /s
They need to ban these death machines from our roads! If they don't kill you on the road, they'll come into your damn house while you sleep and kill you!
