Understand, I didn't offer an opinion on the validity of the suit(s). All I mentioned were question the truck driver and/or his company would have to answer.It's a tragedy that Haskins is dead and died the way he did. Having the money that he did, I don't understand why he didn't call someone to his aid. He did call his wife I suppose, so his phone worked. There is no way in Hell I would walk across a busy multi-lane highway no matter what. In fact, I'd get out of the car and go sit on the guardrail, or even better, get behind it and sit in the grass far away for fear the car would get struck as I sat in it dialing AAA or whoever. The fact that so many people are being sued by his wife is partly why so many things in this country are so damned expensive. I guess I just don't understand the lack of common sense these days - I'm out of gas, let's walk across a multi-lane high speed highway. I don't mean to P you off, but surely you can see as a REASONABLE person as I know you are, that this was a terrible accident. You don't go walking across multiple lanes of high speed traffic. If somebody in fact drugged him beforehand causing his actions, then I feel they deserve the maximum criminal penalty.
I don't have a dog in the fight, so to speak. So, it's nothing for me to sit back and observe how things play out. And that, very loosely out of respect for his family; whether they be proven right or wrong in this instance.
