There are more motorists and vehicles on the road today than at any point in human history. Cars have become so populous that people often forget that they are two metric tons of metal that can easily reach speeds of over sixty miles per hour and are capable of inflicting tremendous harm.
This was sadly proven true this week in Morganton, NC when thirty-seven-year-old Timothy Robinson drove his truck down a closed lane of 1-40 early Friday. Robinson collided directly with three construction workers, killing one and seriously injuring the other two who were rushed off to a nearby hospital. Police do not believe alcohol or speed to be factors in the motor vehicle crash, but criminal charges are expected to be filed.
Each motorist is responsible for his or her own actions. They are expected to operate in a safe, responsible manner that does not pose a threat to themselves or anyone else on the road. This is especially true concerning pedestrians: while they do not have the protection of a vehicle, they still have the full protection of the law. Under the law, pedestrians should be given deference by nearby vehicles. When, through no individual fault, a pedestrian sustains serious physical injuries from the negligence of nearby motorist, the responsible party should be held accountable.
