  1. My wife witnessed this accident and the way he behaved. This guy was very dangerous to other motorists and to society as a whole. I hope they do not plea bargin this guy and let him off with some type of light sentence. He needs to be taught a lesson before he hurts someone badly.

    1. Hope she gave a statement. If not, have her call PD and do so. More evidence can only help the case.
