Look what it also says
quote:

As Lacy was illegally passing the other vehicles, the driver of a northbound pickup truck abruptly braked and swerved to the right to avoid a head-on collision with the approaching Dodge. Traveling behind the pickup was a 2017 Kia Cadenza whose driver swerved left to avoid the on coming Dodge Charger. As the Kia Cadenza took evasive action to avoid impact with the Dodge, it crossed the centerline and collided head-on with a southbound 2017 Kia Sorento.


Look familiar?

The only way it’s his fault is if she would have hit him if she didn’t swerve into the other guy.

There’s a question of whether he would have been convicted, then there’s a question of whether he logically deserves blame.

Let’s say I walk out into the middle of the interstate and cause the first cars in line to lock up their brakes. There’s a 15-car pileup behind them and someone dies. Am I criminally responsible for that death? I don’t know, probably not. Did I cause the accident? Uhh… yeah.

Those 15 cars should have just stopped.

how far behind someone are you supposed to drive?

The answer by law is far enough to stop in anal emergency.

if the car in front of you could stop and avoid an accident, that means there is enough time to stop safely and you weren’t doing what you needed to do.

and that’s rear end accidents.
it’s not swerving into oncoming traffic.

Because no one has ever reported that anyone stopped. Not one. Ever. You are driving right behind someone in traffic at 40ish MPH and they abruptly slam on their brakes and swerve half out of the lane. You are hitting something. Thousands of accidents go down like this every year.


thousands of accidents happen like that and it’s usually the fault of the person who could t stop safely.

not if you’re following at a safe distance.

I literally have slammed on my breaks going 60 on the interstate and avoided an accident.

Like I said, the impact with lacey has to be reasonably likely to happen to justify her taking evasive maneuvers that cause an accident.

and that doesn’t seem to be the case.

In Louisiana you’d have to establish comparative fault to make that case. And that’s the grandaddy of all long shots. Even then, he’s not absolved of guilt.

3-4 seconds and use a landmark to count one thousand one... one thousand two? etc. to brake safely

If I am driving faster I add more time to stop.

It was the first I heard that Kyren was wrongfully arrested.
He wasn’t.

quote:

I really would like to know more about this case.
Make sure to find out from more than just the defense attorney like with your wrongfully arrested comment.

quote:

And then on a complete side note, I saw that the dude who stabbed the high schooler the other day (Karmelo Anthony) was released on $250,000 bail while Kyren was released on $151,000 bail for something his lawyer stated he had nothing to do with. There really wasn't any proof that Kyren caused the wreck.
Not sure what point you are getting at. The amount of Anthony’s bail reduction was a travesty for the crime and due to him and family renting an almost $900,000 house in a gated neighborhood with private streets and a new additional car in their driveway purchased right after the murder while claiming a higher bail was a financial burden. You shouldn’t imply Kyren’s bail amount was a mistake by comparing it to a mistake and one made in another state. It’s a bad comparison. Also, there were eye witnesses to Kyren illegally passing, speeding, and being the cause of vehicles wrecking as one was trying to avoid Kyren illegally being in his lane.

Do you drive 260+ feet behind the car in front of you on the interstate? Because that’s your stopping distance at 70 mph with a 0.25 second reaction time.

Yeah, people should leave enough following distance to fully stop. The vast majority of people don’t. I would bet money that you don’t.

The vast majority of people do have enough sense not to pass in a no-passing zone, on a two-lane road with no shoulder.

Only an idiot or a contrarian would argue that a pedestrian walking into the interstate didn’t “cause the wreck” in the example I gave, regardless of whether that pedestrian is held legally responsible.

Also..

are you supposed to be following so close that if the car in front of you hits the breaks you blow into the back of them?

hint: NO you’re not supposed to be following that close.

Kyren illegally being in his lane


The truck had the only male driver other than KL and truck didn't get hit.

Herman's wife was driving behind KL and the person who swerved into them was female. She hit Herman's vehicle on driver's side and Herman was the passenger.

Fair (although there are scenarios such as collision in front of you where this isn’t necessarily the case). Pick 100 drivers at random and have the car in front of them lock their brakes. What percentage do you think can avoid accident without swerving into another lane?

What’s more reckless: driving on the wrong side of the road in a no-passing zone with no shoulders or driving too closely behind someone to avoid them when they lock their brakes up?

It depends. In a chain of events you have to consider the diminishing response time and distance involved as you move down the chain. She’s reacting to a vehicle reacting to another vehicle reacting to the victim. At some point, the adequate time and distance is lost. Just like in any multi car pileup. Probably why she was never cited. Comparative fault couldn’t be established. But either way, he’s at fault.


ETA: also consider that the accident happened where the speed limit drops from 55 to 40. She and the truck were coming from the faster side.
