In a lot of places in suburbia/small towns they're the same thing because there are no sidewalks.
Sorry if this makes anyone even more ill.
If you leave the scene and there were injuries as a result of the accident you face a harsher penalty. Hit and run involving injuries is a Class C felony. Class C felonies are punishable by up to 5 years in prison and fines reaching $125,000.
The Liberal media won’t report this story. Please send it to Drudge, O’Reilly, Kelly, and Hannity.
If this kind of thing occurs in a “sanctuary state” the I think the state should AUTOMATICALLY be held fully liable for wrongful death.
The settlement should be DOZENS of millions.
They say they’re big hearted? Let them live up to it.
You mean the Barry that effectively employed a hit-n-run on Seal Team Six, killing them all? Yes, that's the government approval you mention.
you are correct “immigrants” are classified as Permanent Residents and have a “green card” to produce as proof.
I did. But the more who do, the better chance he will post it.
Where is the Star Chamber when you need it?
It’s because Obamacare is miraculous.
A monetary settlement is the first thing that comes to your mind seeing the picture of that little girl?
On the local news they showed a quick video that had piles of leaves in the street along the curb. Not sure if it was canned video, or the actual street where the girls were playing.
If they were playing in a pile of leaves in the street it was a terrible accident all the way around. I could see myself as a kid both playing in the leaves, or as a stupid teenager driving through a pile of leaves in the street.
They said they felt/heard a thump but didn’t think anything of it. Not sure if myself as a once young punk driver would have thought about it either. Even now I probably wouldn’t think I had hit two kids in a pile of leaves, but would at least check to see what damage might be to my vehicle, and what might have caused it.
Once they heard the news they figured out what they had done, and went to wash off the evidence as she (the driver) is illegal.
Do not come to my world, my country, and my home, illegally, then kill my children and wish for or expect a civilized response.
Here is from another article with some more information. How tragic that only moments before that their father was out there with them enjoying their play. Some of my favorite photos are of my kids playing in a pile of colorful leaves.:
The two girls, whom police said are step sisters, were playing in a pile of leaves, which extended over the curb and into the 1700 block of Main Street. Neighbors and police said the crash occurred across the street from the family’s home, in front of the Forest Grove School District administration building.
Investigators do not think the vehicle that hit Anna and Abigail left the roadway. Herb said police think the children were playing in the leaves that were piled in the street.
The driver, Herb said, may not have known that he or she struck the girls. It’s unclear whether the two were sitting up or completely submerged in the leaves.
Their father was outside with them snapping photographs, Herb said. At the time of the crash, he either looked away or ran into the house momentarily.
Thanks, Fred.
up front .. they tried to hide evidence ... fry them
I know nothing about that part of Oregon, but me and my brother would pile the leaves in front of our suburban Boston house, raked into a big pile, on the street by the curb.
We'd jump in the pile and just have a great time making a mess, raking it back up and etc.
One day we were playing and my brother buried me in the leaves.
Just then, my father pulled in from work.
He stopped the car about 2 or 3 feet from the pile because we had built it and he was respectin' our fun ... but he had no idea I was inches from being crushed.
I jumped up with a gleeful shout ... and he went into a rage .. grabbing us, sending us into the house.
We got a lecture and we were put in fear for our lives .... my father could do that ... but never touched us ... just yelled and told us how stupid and dangerous that was.
We were about 6 or 7 years old at the time.
THAT'S what I thought of when I read this srory.
The source of this “news article” is a blog. The author of the article (and the blog) is a novelist. Is this article corroborated by any other news reports?
Nope. I think first of the NEXT pair or little girls. And the next. Then I think of The next 100 to follow.
And that is because this is but a snapshot of a MUCH BIGGER PROBLEM.
You need to THINK and not just feel.
