You’re being the human version of no-fault insurance.

Someone smokes you at a 4 way stop when you have the right of way, but the states insurance laws claim no fault, so you end up with partial liability.

PUSSYFOOTing- Verb


....


I dont have a definition, but try @ZYBORG :)

Unless there's a dashcam out there no one knows the extent of the "cut off". Was it bad where the BMW almost went into a ditch or was it where the BMW simply had to slow down/lift off the gas due to his actions.

Where does it say he approached the other guy? It says he rolled down his window and later that he died inside of his truck.

He "approached" with his vehicle, rolled down his window, and at that point the BMW guy might have mistaken those actions for further escalation. Just sayin'.

I don't like the outcome one bit, but I can see errors on both sides.

Exactly. No one knows how bad the cut off was. No one knows what words were exchanged. No one knows what really went down. All we do know is what started the chain of events.

They were stopped together at a red light. He didn't approach shit lol, but whatever. Even if he rolled down his window and called the guy every name in the book it still wouldn't warrant what happened.

Yeah man, I hear ya and agree. There's a lesson here for all of us, analogous to a quote by Miyamoto Musashi, perhaps the greatest Samurai warrior ever, who said "always be careful, even in small matters".

In the end, after all of the comments (it got too numerous to respond to all of them), I think it's important to remember that the real tragedy here are the women and children left behind.

I don't care who the shooter was as a person. At 19 months old, that's an innocent baby that had to witness it/lose their dad. Same goes for the vet, and his friend who had to hear his friend die on the phone.

This looks like the typical case of svtp agreeing while disagreeing on how things are worded, if only I wasnt guilty of it.

Alls I know is the mixtape artist with colorful beads in his hair got smoked too and I dont feel anything towards that. His kid though... Yea
