You are literally arguing she wasn’t speeding, she wasn’t follow too close but for some reason she still couldn’t just stop.

Wrong. He has data, likely from an insurance app on her car, but he calculated the speed of the truck using the brief footage of the truck whipping into the car wash parking lot- not its actual speed prior to braking. He admitted this.

I’m doing no such thing. She is documented as going 49 in an exact area where the speed limit changes from 50 to 40.

I’m stating, accurately, that there’s no evidence that she was following too closely. That’s an assumption.

And since you are so good at assuming, I’m also asking you to explain why the gold truck bailed halfway off the road if Lacy was already safely back in the southbound lane. Still waiting for an answer.

Watching the video Funyong and the victim stop on impact and block
both lanes

No one else hits them

everyone else is far enough away to break and avoid a pileup. The only cars Funyons was in danger of hitting were the Gold Truck and the victim.

Both of which were because of her own actions.

Lacy isn’t even the first car to approach, the accident scene. that’s haw far away he was when Funyons killed a guy.

Fair enough, but the “apron” you are showing ends before the point of impact.

If she isn’t following too closely why did she swerve into the other lane

1 thing at a time.
If she’s following GT at a safe distance why does she swerve and not jsut stop.

that’s the definition of following at a safe distance. the ability to stop in time to avoid an accident.

Correct. She had to choose, in less than a half a second to rear end the truck or try to veer around him. Maybe if she hit the truck more people die? But no one dies if Lacy doesn’t try to pass 4 cars illegally.


I’m here all week.

It doesn’t matter because there’s no actual evidence of your claim, but I’ll bite.

A car in front of you locks his brakes and you instinctively try to veer around him rather than rear end him. That’s not unreasonable. Further, there’s is no defined safe distance or time interval articulated anywhere in Louisiana law. Only a distance deemed “reasonable and prudent" distance based on conditions that can be observed and cited by law enforcement.

You are chasing a dragon. But I know you don’t care and you’ll die on your hill, so I’ll just let you die.

I’m to the point with this distracted/defensive driving talk that I was almost scared to drive in my small town today. And I had no Funyuns in my lap nor did I have the radio on nor did I have a phone in my hand.

This has me all shook.

But you shouldn’t have half a second to decide how to hit someone.
if you’re following at a safe distance you slow down and stop.

So was she following at a safe distance

Ok. It takes an object traveling 50MPH one second to travel 75 feet using the standard car length per 10MPH rule, so yes… about a half second in ideal conditions to respond.

But first, Show us the specific safe distance at a given speed cited in Louisiana law.

If you can do that, show us the evidence that she was inside of said safe distance.

I’ll wait.

The law is:

quote:

The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, having due regard for the speed of such vehicle and the traffic upon and the condition of the highway.


Somehow being left with the option of slamming into a truck and slamming into reason traffic doesn’t seem reasonable or prudent.

So we are right back where we started. A subjective and ambiguous rule that you are assuming was violated based on no evidence.

Could she stop and avoid hitting the car in front of her?

It depends. As I’ve stated, using the old one car length per 10MPH standard, she would have had one second until impact at 50MPH. Thats nothing.

And you still haven’t answered my question. Why is gold truck not liable if, as you claim, Lacy had safely returned to the southbound lane well before any issues arose? Had he stayed put, all is well right?
