Good thing he stopped. Woulda been much worse then it already will be for him. Too bad he didn’t just keep his mouth shut, refuse everything and only say the word “lawyer.”

Laying down in the middle of the road late at night?

DUI sure

No way could I in good consciousness bring vehicular manslaughter. charges

They would be charged but I doubt convicted

He is.

If you get in an wreck caused by the other person, they die, and you have any alcohol in your system. You will be charged with manslaughter.

When I'm on a pint of vodka + adderall buzz while driving exceptionally well, I often think.... "No matter how great I'm driving and feeling right now,
I'm frickED if some idiot runs out in front of me or a car pulls out in front of me. All b/c I'm driving the speed limit and about .12 BAC".

Because it is assumed that your inebriation contributed to the accident even if the other driver was somewhat at fault.

Here for example, a sober driver probably would have notice the woman laying in the road in time to avoid her, this guy likely didn't notice her at all until his car bumped over her. It's her fault for laying in the fricking road of course, but a sober driver may have been able to avoid her.

I definitely remember that scene. Actually saw it in the movie theater. They took it out afterwards because of that.

That's the key word that there is no way to prove.

Unfortunately, this is the thing you have to think about when you have a drink and drive.... could frick up years or all of your life because of some other person being an idiot

Both are idiots, dude fricked up his own life getting behind the wheel that tore up.

Run over the lady sober, nothing would happen to him.

Wonder how it would change if he had been at or if he had been under the legal limit, but still under influence.

Women get irrational when they are arguing. Reminds me of the woman in China who got out of the car during an argument with her husband as they were driving through a wildlife park. The complete absence of any logic really is astounding.

Husband loses wife (ho beat him) and gets to sue the car insurance company.

Pretty good note for him.

Why would she chase her husband with a meat tenderizer then go lay in the road?
