    If you're driving and you strike a stationary object, as far as I can see, you are at fault. You and you alone. This ridiculous nonsense of blaming everyone and everything up to and including God Himself for your own stupidity has got to stop being recognized by our legal system.

    Something needs to be done about idiots landing on the shoulder all day every day for no good reason.

    And the PI Lawyer will go after Pumpkin just because they once owned the trailer.
