I would think that if a car hits a bike it would be a bit redundant to say that he violated the 3 foot law in doing so? To illustrate the problem: Maybe 75 miles from here a couple of years ago, a northbound driver in a pickup truck tried turning left into another road. He ran head-on into a pack of road cyclists on a downhill. Two cyclists died. His defense: The sun was glaring in his eyes, so he didn't see them. He was acquitted. https://www.cleveland.com/brecksvill..._not_guil.html The fact that the U.S. (or States therein) fails to treat malfeasance as a crime is simply one more example of what one might say a lack of moral fiber. In another message you comment on the possibility of an office not being re-elected if he were to enforce a law. What's next? A ten dollar fine for murder? I'd say that's entirely possible, if the murderer has the foresight to use his car as the murder weapon. But he does have to remember to say "I didn't see him." :-/ -- - Frank Krygowski |
