Guinn says Vidrine, 34, was offered a three-year prison sentence, followed by two years of educating others about the dangers of distracted driving. Vidrine chose prison, Guinn said.

Seems like an awfully short sentence for such a crime.

this. If it was "in death of a garbage truck driver" people wouldnt' care as much.

Not saying it's right, just the way the world works.

What kind of bike do you have, brah?

As for OP, I hope the POS that hit the firefighter does some soul searching. I don't know the whole story, but the fact that he showed no remorse and wouldn't speak to the kids tells me all I really need to know about him.

That being said... How much more time do you guys think is warranted though? He was speeding, but he didn't do it on purpose right? It wasn't a road rage type of incident, was it? Maybe 10 years would have been more appropriate.

Haven't you heard? Firefighters are better than other people so their deaths are more tragic. The same is sometimes true for cops and always true for veterans.

Not referring to the case here, but every bicyclist I've seen completely lacks courtesy.

They invented self-entitlement.
