was entirely her fault.

The vile and infidel swine and swine sodomizer "Speeders & Drunk
Drivers are MURDERERS," in an affront to Allah (Praises be unto His

That is not important. What is important is your continued evasion of
the following issue:

Have you ever driven a car faster then the posted speed limit?

There is a widespread prejudice against motorcycle riders. Watch any
article in which a driver who is not drunk kills a biker. There is almost
never a prosecution, and even when the circumstances are egregious - driving
on the wrong side of the road, excessive speed, leaving the scene of the
accident - the penalty is incredibly light. It happens time and again.

I've had a car driver go road rage and try to run me over - he tried twice.
Got him to the police station. Spent two and a half hours trying to get
them to arrest him. The highway patrol first lied to me, telling me since
it was a citizen's arrest I would have to personally prosecute it. Then
they claimed there were no witnesses, until I insisted they check the 911
logs. When they found a call relating to it, they demanded every phone
number of mine, insinuating I made the call. They searched me, went through
my pockets - and treated the guy I'd done the citizen's arrest on with
nothing but utmost courtesy. Even after I got a supervising sergeant I
couldn't get them to arrest the guy.

The motorcyclist is assumed to be suicidal, I guess, but when a cage driver
kills one, nothing happens. Watch the news stories of these incidents,
you'll see it time and time again.

Don't worry, law of averages says that even SFB will get one right
once in a while. Kinda like that whole infinite number of monkeys at

Since when is 63 a "geezer"? Incompetent, yes. Geezer, hardly.

Ridiculous. Anyone in an accident is suddenly a "geezer"?

They are if they act like a geezer. I'd say running over your own husband
qualifies as a very geezer-like act. But if someone posts the life
insurance policy specs., my opinion might change. :) -Dave

The article doesn't say that she confused the pedals, but that she
just didn't stop in time and basically rear-ended him.

Hell, for all we know, he pissed her off and she did it on purpose!

Actually, it's only certain posts that do that. You'll see that your own
works fine. I think it's a GIGO situation. I've noticed the same thing on
some posts running puppy linux. Can't blame THAT on Windows Mail.

And you know that how? Anyway, 63 isn't elderly. 83 is elderly.

Much more like that it's slow reaction time, inattentiveness, or poor
vision/depth perception.
