    Sad deal. By the sound of the report, I hope they throw the book at the driver. What a ########### thing to do.

    Disgusting. Probably one of those drivers that "knows his body.". Funny that's the same excuse that a drunk would use and they are the same if you ask me.

    Apparently this driver doesn't need another JOB! Drivers like this make us all look bad and make it hard on all of us!

    How do you miss all the warning signs? When a flagman is out you usually have at least one big warning sign. He was definitely preoccupied with something other than driving.

    Drop the ball and in a few seconds you find yourself in jail.

    Only a chicken dung driver runs. You can run but you can't hide. That move doubled his sentence.
