Well what were the circumstances?  I feel bad for him also if it was an
accident not caused by his own carelessness.  Of course I feel for her family,
but I would feel for both sides.  I hit a kid on a bike when I was driving
years ago.  My mom was in the car with me.  Thank GOD he was ok.  Just the
wheel got wrecked.  I was driving very safely and he was on the side of the
road.  I slowed down when I got to him and he still kept driving straight.  At
the last minute he crossed in front of me to take a left.  Now if he died I
would feel so horrible and it would never leave me, but it would not have been
my fault.  I pulled over and made sure he was ok and he was more embarrassed
than anything.  Said he was fine and took off.  I then drove straight to the
police station to file a report.
