      From: xxxxx@xxxx.xxx              This involves a Car accident, and if anyone, especially Lawyers, who       monitor this NG would like to give an opinion, or point me to any       appropriate Case Law, I certainly would appreciate it.              Road conditions at the time were ideal, broad daylight, sunshine and       dry road surface. I was travelling well above the posted speed limit       and failed to stop at a stop sign at a 4-way intersection and struck       another vehicle that was proceeding through the intersection. I had a       clear, unobstructed view of the intersection and the stop sign, and       even though I had at least 3 seconds warning of the impending       accident, I took no preventive action, there were no skid marks from       my car so I did not even touch my brakes, and injured both occupants       of the car I hit. I contacted a friend who lived nearby by cellphone       and he 'dropped everything' and helped me leave the scene of the       accident. We did not check to see if anyone in the other car required       immediate first-aid. There were 2 occupants in my car and when the       police finally caught up with us, we gave conflicting stories as to       who was actually driving at the time of the accident.              What can I/we be charged with?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
