Oh no that is sad. His poor family. I can't believe all these hit and runs. I don't think id pull over for a flat tire, think I'd just roll on it until I could pull into a business. This happens way too many times. 4951

Awful. Never change a tire or do any work on your car in the shoulder or road. Get out and get away when clear and call 911. Hate seeing this stuff. You have to be aware of your surroundings, high speed cars, people distracted. Get out and move away. I jog at night but always in the direction of oncoming traffic with the best reflective belt money can buy. If they see me great, if not I can move out the way and live another day. 4951

Out of curiosity, where did you get the "driving erratically" information from? On the radio, the police spokesman said they suspect the driver didn't even see the man the hit and might not realize they hit him. 4951

I was on my way from work Thursday around 6pm and notice a women all over the lanes, driving on the lanes, going from one side of her lane to the far right side, occasionally driving on the lane line for a few miles.  I was behind her for about 3 minutes as the traffic was heavy. I eventually moved to the left lane to see who was doing this.  She was on her cell phone, totally relaxed, kind of slumped down in her seat.  She had blonde hair, petite face, very ice looking.  She was driving a black SUV.  If anyone knows who she is please let her know she scared a number of drivers as everyone was speeding up to get away from her.Things like this happen all the time because people think talking on the phone is more important than being aware of their surroundings. 4951

@bittone I knew it was going to be the cell phone... A lot of time they get in the left lane and can't maintain a speed and bounce off the left & right lines.  Yep they're texting. Then when they are done no one is going fast enough for them, so get out of their way. I use really bad words when I drive! 4951

It seems to 've but not on the forums. It's not allowed. The classified section is where you want to go. 4951

Dear Holier Than Thou,
 
Yes. I do believe that when it is rather dark, in the wee hours of the morning, when the average speed of a car is 75mph and a human is trying to run across 6 lanes of traffic that a person could conceivably inadvertently strike them and mistake them for road debris or something that came off a car in front of them.
 
How about you think about that before you jump on your high horse & get insulting?
 
buh-bye 4951
