re: LSP release Lacy info in reference to Lacy attorney misinformation

You’re assuming the truck came to a complete stop, which it didn’t. You’re also assuming Lacy was moving towards a stationary object, which he wasn’t.

When you watch the video, the gold truck never fully comes into frame but we can still see the victims car in the impact.

there is only so much room. so either he stopped completely or slowed down a lot.

the LSP video they put out even points out that he “veered” AFTER the collision behind him. You can barely see it and it looks more like he pulled over than “veered”

I’m not saying it’s impossible. Police officers make these determinations every day as it’s a judgement call per Louisiana law.

What I’m saying is you have zero, none, frick all means to not only establish safe braking distance in those conditions after-the-fact, but to prove said distance was ever violated.


But keep repeating loud noises! Someone here may be stupid enough to be convinced.

Muh safe driving distance!!!!

So which is it?

She was following at a safe distance and chose to veer into head on traffic instead of stopping

OR

she was following to close and chose to veer into head on traffic instead of hitting the gold truck?

So braking and stopping in your lane is the only appropriate evasive action? Then why wasn’t gold truck ticketed?

Tell us more about being stupid.

Let’s ignore the fact that one driver in particular was driving like an absolute maniac. All those pesky other drivers should be aware of that and make the appropriate maneuvers to avoid collisions

From that point Lacy is able to overcome his 2 traffic violations and slow down and come to a stop before the accident location.

How did you type this with a straight face

See I never said the Kia driver wasn’t at fault, I’ve stated from the beginning that it took the actions of both Lacy and her for the wreck to happen. You are stuck on her being the only person at fault. Does the truck have a reason to brake which causes her to swerve if Lacy isn’t in their lane a few hundred feet away?

---

Lacy absolutely causes the truck to brake.

He does not cause the woman to follow the truck too closely to brake which is what causes the collision.

Think of it like OSHA rules.

Lacy caused the chain to break.

The gold truck triggered the safety mechanism

The Kia driver didnt have the safety mechanism attached which led to a fatality.

We have a system in place where Lacy's actions shouldn't have led to any fatality, the Kia driver ignored that system, instead choosing to tailgate and then swerve into oncoming traffic when her tailgating created a situation she didn't notice/or was incapable of responding to because of her speed/distance.

You really can’t make this up. So the system is designed for people to drive well over the speed limit and in the wrong lane as long as every single other person on the road has a 10 car gap between them?

No.

The system is set up so that if you are driving behind someone and they brake you can brake without hitting them or leaving your lane.

There are a number of reasons a car in front of you may brake.

Its kinda crazy if your opinion is that every time a truck brakes in front of you you should just hit them and it's their fault for braking (or whatever in front of them caused them to brake)
