Yeah sure, blame the victims of horrible infrastructure. I walked myself to kindergarden, when I was around 4 or 5 years old, when I was 7, I would walk home from school.
There wasn't some busy four-lane-road on my way in my rural town. Four fucking lanes? What the hell?
Living in a city, I wasn't allowed to cross roads by myself when I was seven (some thirty years ago) much less four lane ones. The horrible American infrastructure make it even worse for the parents to let their kids go alone. Was the mother not aware of that road being there?
Better question: Was the old fart not aware there were children under his murder vehicle?
He's cooperating with the cops apparently, but it sounds like it was a bystander who was checking on the other kid until their parents could get there.
