Sloot stopped for DUCKS on the HIGHWAY, gets TWO people killed, asks for leniency...

[m1n2v5]

My problem is this, she was able to see the ducks, yet the dude couldn't even see her car? That father made a huge mistake and didn't take the dangers of the road seriously.

good point. if fukkin ducks are visible, one would think her car was too. poor driving choices on both sides.

[MGFusion]

I thought she put on the brakes which caused the motorcycle to crash into her. but she was parked and then the motorcycle hit the car?

This. If she was already parked and the motorcycle happened to just come by after a while and hit the car then it is definitely the motorcycle's fault.

[OathKeeper]

She was parked in the left lane (passing lane for faster drivers) KEEP RIGHT, EXCEPT TO PASS. Chances are dude was either changing lanes or just going faster than the rest of traffic. Girl is at 95% fault and to say otherwise is retarded, the other 5% goes to the motorcycle because he was over the limit.

No one here can say that they don't speed or start day dreaming while cruising on a highway, dude was only human....girl was just dumb as fuk. Also for those who are uneducated, motorcycles don't stop like cars/trucks do (if you don't believe me then I dare you to get up to 100km/h on a bike and then slam on the brakes.

A lot of misinformation in this thread; this is what happened

- Sloot driving in the far left lane
- Sees duckings with no mom duck on the side of the road
- She wants to take them home as pets
- Parks her car in the live lane and gets out with no 4 way blinkers, starts trying to catch the ducks
- Other lady sees her on the side of the road, distracted and goes wtf is she doing, looks back on the road just in time to swerve around the parked car
-30 seconds later motorcycles see her on the side of the road, distracted and goes wtf is she doing, crash into her parked car

[BenadrylBandit]

I think it's pretty much instinct to at least tap your breaks for an animal, but to full on stop on a highway for ducks is ****ing potato.

[GrokTheCube]

This. If she was already parked and the motorcycle happened to just come by after a while and hit the car then it is definitely the motorcycle's fault.

Wasn't it middle of the night, no street lights, her car off? Or did some miscer make that up?

If even her head/tail lamps were on, then it is 100% the motorcyclist's fault.

I'm not sure if you're serious....



So someone in front of you brakes to avoid an accident. You daydreaming pile into the person in front of you. Its 95% the other person's fault and 5% yours? Seems insurance claims, police, and the law would disagree with you. She was dumb as fuk for what she did, but it was the driver's failure for daydreaming.

Lol if that's the case she deserves not prison time but perma license revoke lmao

[salamisalem]

Next time read the article before you make stupid opinions. She was parked and away from her car, she didn't slam the brakes.

[LordBroski]

signed her petition (srs)

[UMirinMyUndies]

happens all the time, even during the day. People are chit at driving, pretty stupid on her part

We just gonna ignore this?

brb lets get out of the car in the middle of the free way herp derp


Not saying this dude deserved to get hit, but come on man ... logic not even once

[DPBizzle]

Yeeeaaaaa... sorry, but if there's small wildlife with such a muted sense of self-preservation, roaming around loud, high traffic areas with large, scary, heavy, fast-moving objects...

It's wildlife.. 0, my front bumper cover, 1. Sometimes, natural selection just needs to decide who wins & who loses.

Wow, really terrible situation. She set the whole chain of events in motion with her careless actions. Parking in the left lane of a highway is just incomprehensible, and no doubt in my state of NJ that car would be rear ended in minutes. Hence why people pull off to the shoulder when their car breaks down or limp to the shoulder with a flat.

I feel bad for her but a stiff penalty sends a message that driving is a privilege. Especially to other teen girls that drive absolutely terribly. (Similar to the people convicted for causing deaths by texting and driving). The texters didn't have any malicious intentions either, but set off a chain of events that resulted in people's deaths. Sometimes stupidity isn't a valid excuse to avoid jail time.

Other guy was alpha as fuk tho, jumped into the trunk of his car before getting sandwiched

Strong reaction time, instinct, and smarts

[RaaR]

Those saying she is not a criminal and shouldnt be charged with criminal negligence

*****://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_negligence

"But criminal negligence is a 'misfeasance or 'nonfeasance' (see omission), where the fault lies in the failure to foresee and so allow otherwise avoidable dangers to manifest."

Canada

The Criminal Code of Canada has a series of offences covering criminal negligence if bodily harm or death is caused. Such laws are often used to prosecute cases of reckless driving causing injury or death.[2] The maximum penalties for criminal negligence causing bodily harm and death are 10 years[3] (14 years if the conviction is for street racing causing bodily harm) and life imprisonment, respectively.

So yeah she is ****ing guilty, yeah the motorcycle should have noticed a parked car or been alerted by other's brakelights something was up but that doesn't change what she did

cause parking on the left lane on the highway is the same as the scenario u described rofl.

[VabaX]

Shouldn't the dude on the motorcycle slowed down when he realized the car was getting closer and closer?


Seems like a failure on both driver's part. What if she had broken down in the left lane and wasn't helping ducks? Still her fault?



Not saying she's the brightest, but traffic slows all the time due to accidents, wild animals, bad weather, etc. Its the responsibility of people to slow down and adjust to traffic. She should have used her flashers, but if in park aren't brake lights on? I've gone down highways numerous times where a deer is on the road and traffic comes to a stop almost immediately. If I am not paying attention and rear end someone in front of me, its my fault, not theirs for stopping due to a "road hazard."

this. there's no doubt that she shouldnt have been there, but any competant road user should have no trouble avoiding a parked car. if she had time to put it in park, open the door and exit the vehicle before the bike hit the car, then the rider should easily have seen it if he'd been paying attention.

[OathKeeper]

Why would they let her off the hook?

It'd be awful if they let her duck out of taking responsibility for her actions. If that happens, it's pretty obvious that the judge is a quack.

[TerellOwens]

strong reaction time on the guy bailing back into the trunk lol

so how can they charge with criminal negligence causing death AND reckless driving causing death?

[TerellOwens]

what the dumb****s in this thread need to realize:

1) it takes time to realize a car isn't moving on the highway.
2) you have a woman dancing around the highway.
3) no blinkers. low light conditions.
3) You are travling 60-70mph.

[Attaus]

wasnt sure if the first one was intentional then lol'd

there are a few good reasons why the motorcycle hit the back of the car. she was stopped with no hazards or brake lights so he had no idea. also panic stopping in a motorcycle usually doesn't end well

criminal negligence for stopping in the middle of the roadway? yes. even if you are broken down you have to put on your hazards. the woman clearly valued the ducks life over her own and others when she stopped in the middle of a highway to save them

she will have something coming to her but i doubt it would be life

edit: just saw the verdict was given already

btw brahs 15km/h over is less than 10mph over..

i think they are making an example out of her.. this is far from the first time a sloot caused an accident by stopping for small animals

[Dawlphinracer]

Ok lets say those two guys weren't there, those two retards would still hit the car because of 0 awareness.






Both parties are fault ITT. Fuking bitch tryna get daffy ducks kids in middle of highway and motorcycle driving not being aware

[RaaR]

so how can they charge with criminal negligence causing death AND reckless driving causing death?

Criminal negligence is the name of the charge to prosecute cases of reckless driving causing injury or death.

[Purostaff]

similar thing happened to me last new years eve. On a highway at night, on the left lane doing 60-70 and next thing I know this bitch in front of me just slams on her brakes (I was a good 5-6 car spaces back), couldn't stop in time so i absolutely demolish her car (I was in Ford F150 pickup and she was in a scion TC). I get out and I'm scared as fuark thinking she's dead, both ends of her car are crushed. But nope she's alive, I walk up to her and ask what happened and she says a cat was on the highway -_________- I turn back and yep, there were cat guts all over the front of her car.

NEVER STOP FOR ANIMALS ON THE HIGHWAY.

got hard while reading that bold part.. don't ask why...

[HeroesFall]

So the solution to not panic stopping is to try and evil kineval her parked car?



From what I understand in the article, it doesn't specify whether she had her parked lights on or had completely turned the vehicle off, ie no parking lights. Even if so, dude wasn't paying attention. Why didn't anyone else hit her when they came up on her foolish antics? He failed at awareness / driving. Things happen in the blink of an eye all the time while driving. That's why you need to pay attention and not daydream / text / fap / whatever.


Should she get punished, yes. But should it be jail time? I don't think so. Community service dealing with smart driving practices speaking at schools or something. They let people off who kill others from texting with less and they are responsible.

[ryan0931]

Fuk she almost at the 10k sigs too. Want to see how this goes. Also victims wife/mom isnt even blaming her for anything. She realizes that her husband was driving 10-20 mph above the limit. She should be fined/community service/driving classes but definitely not prison time.

[ShoryuBrah]

Potato responses itt holy fukk

[MindNumbing]

Who the fuark stops in the left lane, the lane everyone speeds in, are you serious? They are ducks, pull over to the shoulder or run them over.

If this sloot doesn't see jail time I'm building a rocket and fuarking off.
