| Shedding a tear for Vanessa Trump...poor, poor Vanessa. |

Nobody is going to give him the benefit of the doubt but it sounds like the back of something like this was sticking out into the road from a driveway. It’s very easy to miss this. And it will easily make you rollover, speeding or not, especially if the back ramp was down.

Bad luck then? Maybe he drives too fast. Reckless driving? |
|
I am assuming he has a pill issue due to his back pain. Sad really. |
Not necessarily and too early to say. You will flip an SUV hitting one of those low profile landscaper trailers driving 10 mph. If he was speeding they won’t know unless and until they pull and analyze the data from the SUV. |
I listened to the actual press conference with the sheriff. He said the driver of the truck said they saw in their rear view, the Range Rover being driven at a high rate of speed compared to the speed limit and he had no time to get over before it hit him. Additionally, the sheriff said The marks on the road for how far Tgers car slid after flipping indicates speeding way above the posted speed limit. |
It’s easy to find out what happened instead of making up stories in your head. “ The sheriff said their investigation later revealed that the truck pulling the pressure-cleaner trailer was traveling northbound on South Beach Road and was starting to pull into a driveway. The driver of that vehicle looked in his mirror and saw a (Range) Rover overtaking him at high speeds," Budensiek said. "He saw it coming, so he tried to edge off the side of the road, but this is a small two-lane road, and there was no shoulder ... to get off the side of the road." |
I didn’t say he wasn’t speeding, just that 1) the SUV’s computer will say precisely how fast he was going and 2) that SUV will flip over in that situation even if he was driving the speed limit. Speeding or not, a trailer hanging out into the road without cones is a hazard. In insurance, they can put % of fault on both parties. |
| Who cares? Nobody was injured. It’s a fender bender. Nobody should give a urine sample to cops without a warrant. Know your rights. |
Doesn't look like they have a blood sample or urinalysis. |
If the person refuses to give a sample as he apparently did, how do they charge him with DUI with no proof of whatever he was on? |
I could not disagree with you more. No one who is driving in a residential area should be driving so fast or paying so little attention (meaning, not looking at a phone), that they would not easily see and avoid a trailer like this in the road. I don't know if Jupiter, FL is only full of old people, but I know when I'm driving in a neighborhood, I'm constantly scanning for kids and walkers and dogs and whatever. It's not "very easy to miss this" at all. Give me a break, learn to drive the lethal machine you've been too easily put in charge of. |
Guilty until proven innocent? |
