Bad collision on the beach road, either last night or early this morning. Police still there taking measurements, which is not a good sign. Looks like a vehicle hit a pole at high speed.
Remember, these are not accidents. An accident is an unforeseen and unplanned event or circumstance.
I'm not sure I understand. Did the driver intend on hitting the light pole?Quote:

Yes, yes it is. LOL
hope you never have a "unplanned event".....:)
Since the pole was struck at a high rate of speed, the driver of the vehicle striking the pole would not have had enough time to either foresee or plan the event. Therefore, this must have been an accident.
I think what you are trying to say is that an accident is caused by no actions of the offender so in this case b/c the driver was speeding, hitting a pole was inevitable which makes it not an accident. I get that and agree. Despite my agreement I do hope the driver is not injured and is okay.Quote:

Who knows?
Speculation serves no purpose at all. This was a tragic event and to blame the victim without being a witness is entirely incorrect. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of the driver...
Well said Rob.
I heard last Jan they were installing a light on N Manley Blvd. Did they go ahead with that?
we live on a back gravel road, 3 years ago a man drove his car into a tree 1/8 mile from our house, then finding out he was still alive, slashed his wrists, (but still is driving today) was that a...successful non accident, or a non successful suicide...?? Cold Red Stripe for the best answer???
If you're reffering to traffic lights....they have been up for a number of months now. The new sidewalk will be completed shortly also.Quote:
