Road Hog!

Gove, a 56-year-old newspaper carrier, was shocked that the driver didn't see him on his three-wheeled delivery bike.

A brush guard could have prevented this.

A brush guard could have prevented this.

Or a rider who isn't an idoit.

A Wisconsin man who became lodged in the windshield of a car that struck him said he turned to the driver and said, "Hello, I'm the guy you hit on the bicycle." The driver did not respond, but continued on, running a stop sign and hitting another vehicle before he arrived home, the cyclist, Steven Gove, told HTR Media about the Saturday incident (http://htrne.ws/1bI58jh ). The man finally noticed Gove when he stopped the car outside his home. "He looked at me and said 'Who are you? What are you doing in the car?'" Gove said. "He started freaking out: 'I'm going to jail, I'm going to jail.'" The man then locked the car doors and went into his home.

I should say it's unbelievable but it's not. Here's an old thread from FR when something similar happened in 2002 Woman accused of hitting man, leaving him to die on windshield. The guy she hit lived for several days, stuck in the windshield while her car was in the garage. She and a friend later dumped the body.

Wow.

“...and it was at that point that I realized my life had become completely unmanageable.”

he was facing several preliminary charges, including suspicion of drunken driving

Don’t be silly...

Marijuana is no worse than......

I get to see genius drivers like that all the time!
And they usually drive a semi.
And act surprised that there really ARE gates and stop signs.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – A 93-year-old driver apparently suffering from dementia fatally struck a pedestrian, then continued driving through a toll booth with the man’s body on his windshield, police said.

Ralph Parker of Pinellas Park (search) drove for 3 miles Wednesday night after striking the 52-year-old pedestrian with his gold 2002 Chevrolet Malibu (search), severing the man’s right leg, police said.

A toll taker on the Sunshine Skyway (search) saw the body stuck through Parker’s windshield and notified police, Traffic Homicide Investigator Michael Jockers said.http://www.foxnews.com/story/2005/10/21/elderly-driver-kills-pedestrian-keeps-going-with-body-in-windshield/

"He looked at me and said 'Who are you? What are you doing in the car?'"

I'm sorry but this is too funny -- it needs to be a skit on SNL.

I strongly suspect a sleep aid GABA blocker drug like Zolpidem (brand names Ambien, Ambien CR, Intermezzo, Stilnox, Sublinox, Hypnogen and Zolsana) is involved.

There are more and more reports of “Ambien zombies”, people doing complex tasks, even driving, while more asleep than not. At least two members of the Kennedy family have been involved in single car accidents while on Ambien.

Some 43 million prescriptions for these drugs have been issued in the US.

Good ol’ Hollywood—they portray the BLACK woman who hit the guy (in real life) as a WHITE woman in their movie version of the crime.

GET OFF MY LAWN!
