A dead dumbass now. Hmmm.... article states: "Witnesses said she failed to stop for the red light at Watt Avenue at 10:34 p.m. and struck an adult bicyclist, Hartley said." To which Jake "Albert Einstein" Donwawgo responded: "should not have crossed in front of the moving car, in spite of what a green light says." Well, from Jake "Albert Einstein" Donwawgo's "logic" one can conclude that the safest course of action for anyone and ANYTHING with the green light at an intersection is to simply sit there and DO NOTHING EVER because one can never be sure if there's gonna be a panic stricken individual ready to run the crossing red light "legitimately" because they have just cause based on an emergency. Well guess from now on I'll just sit at a green light in my car AND DO NOTHING cause goddamned if there might not be someone ready to run the crossing redlight cause he or she has a "legitimate" emergency they have to attend to.......
