I'm shocked I have to scroll down so far to see someone complain about that. He absolutely is shifting 100% of the blame for him killing someone onto the person

Honestly, I feel really sorry for the guy and I'm willing to take him at his word that it wasn't his fault, but I found the bit about him hitting the girls a little off. It almost seemed like he was more angry at them for being in the road than himself for hitting them. As some who has hit someone in my car before and was not to blame (legally at least) I'm more than aware these things happen, but I think if I killed someone, especially if it was someone as young as 18, I'd be tormented by guilt. Even if it were an accident.

  I'd be pissed if someone else caused an accident that caused me guilt, prison time, ruined my life. I'd be extremely pissed at them

seriously. calling them "victims" (as if they weren't killed by his car) was very unsettling. showed little to no remorse for his actions.

  If you fire my gun, whose fault is it? If you jump in front of my car I bear zero responsibility. If anything, you should be paying for damage to me. How much time he actually had to react is up to anyone’s guess, but let's not dumb it down to "HIS car killed".

    Assuming we take his story at face value, from a legal standpoint you are correct. However, if I accidentally ran somebody over and even if I was not at legal fault I would certainly feel guilty and it feels wrong to me how quickly he pushed it off. I also find it a bit weird he implied he was driving a car but in the news article it said he was driving a motorcycle.

In any sane country it is the people who lay on highways or jump into train tracks who are criminals not the drivers or train operators.
