It surprised me to hear the car Spead away from the scene of the accident, with so many authorities in uniforms in that area.

Given the number of CCTV cameras in the area it should not have been very long before the vehicle was identified

Perhaps they were updating their FB.

That's a multi lane road. Plenty of opportunity to shift lanes before running the guy over.

This is a murder. Not a hit and run.

But they are not going to clamp down at the source - driving schools in this country. It's a joke. People can't even reverse or parallel park to save their lives.

Why?

Perhaps all those tax revenue and credit payouts from car sales and loans.

If weed was taxable and you could take a loan for your stash, that too will be allowed like these blind drivers on the road.

It's a fast stretch just south of the monument. Murder has to be premeditated, so how does this qualify?

When you see a man lying on the road, and you gun the pedal in his direction, there is clear intent.

At the least, it's manslaughter.

Well a moment of panic from the driver would be understandable to be honest, it's not like they are used to people impersonating speed bumpers in a weird hide and seek act.

Was is that American guy that tried the same stunt on that exact place about 3 months ago?
