you have no idea what you're talking about. like it or not, if these parties were negligent and if their negligence contributed to his death, they're going to be held responsible. i don't know why that's so hard to understand and why everyone thinks it's so unfair. If you truly think that the owner of the stalled car should be held responsible, than you are seriously delusional. What's the legal precedent for a finding of negligence stemming from abandoning a vehicle in the left hand lane of a highway? I don't know, and I feel pretty comfortable assuming that you don't, either. Like I said, all it will take is some little "rat faced" lawyer, and some liberal judge, and Handocks dad will be a rich man. That still doesn't mean it is right to hold the tow truck driver and car owner accountable. Its disgusting, and basically an examble of the trend in today's society of no accountability. dude, you really just need to shut up. you clearly are just talking out your ass with no basis for what you are saying. you know nothing about the law, so stop posting like you do. my goodness. I'm not talking about the law, I'm talking about right and wrong. So if you really think that the stalled car and driver are partly responsible for this then you are pathetic.
