Well, could you have coped with the scenario I outlined? I've had to do something similar, and it wasn't easy at all. It wasn't them who did the plowing; it was the 18-wheeler that suddenly turned across their bow. The recommended safe following distance for a semi-trailer is 300 feet. That would not apply in an adjacent lane, so the poor Haitians were too close for safety once the truck barged across their lane. As anyone would be. Since when is death the penalty for doing nothing wrong?
