Unless the snowman was built in the road, the driver is at fault not the people that created the snowman.
I think the fact he doesn't explicitly mention it is an admission that it wasn't built on the road.
The "if I find out who did this" does bring that into question, though. If it was in front of a house it'd be very obvious who did it.
But given the vibes the car owner is giving off, it's more likely it was in a park or field or the sidewalk next to a road, and he thought it'd be okay to hit it because there was almost no chance of the creator catching him.
You could be right. Still, the asshole driver not knowing who to blame just makes it funnier.
He is to blame. He doesn't know that indeed.
Yeah I was guessing a park or something. Which means the “kids” might have spent considerable effort to get the cinder blocks there in the first place.
It makes one wonder how many times he'd done this before that they'd go to the trouble.
If the snowman was build on the road, the driver is at fault for driving carelessly, not paying attention.
Nobody else was hurt. Nobody else's property was damaged. There is no one to be held liable.
This guy drove into a snowman, regardless of where it was.
A static object that only moves in Christmas music.
If it was a snowbank, same deal.
If it was a parked car, same deal.
If it was a fallen telephone/power pole, same deal.
If it was a pile of cinderblocks that fell off the back of a truck, same deal.
The guy either wasn't paying attention, or was being an asshole.
Either way, driving carelessly. Asshole is at fault
Yeah, even if it was in the road it could have been a kid dressed up in a snowman costume...
In a trench coat, sneaking into a PG-13 movie.
His car damaged the snowman and cinderblocks
That reminds me of the time during a huge snowstorm, we got about 3 feet of snow. Not safe for driving. But I went for a walk to my buddy's house.
A bunch of college kids built a giant snow family in a four lane intersection of a major street. I cheered them on.
An hour later, I went back home to check. Those kids were taking apart the snow family. There were two cops behind them, supervising them.
