Default The OP is correct

OP, there is never a shortage of ignorance here. Many people drive too fast. That’s a fact.
It’s foolhardy for people to try speculate about the pedestrian’s medical history, etc.
The issue here is not just this poor person, and his family. (It could be a factor.)
The issue is also not the weight of the car versus the weight of the person (clearly a factor).
The issue is that speedy motorists have less reaction time.
As a young person, I drove too fast. But over the years, I’ve seen too many unnecessary fatalities. And as we age, our reaction times are longer.
Please, everyone, just slow down.
Leave earlier.
Save yourself a costly lawsuit.
Most importantly, save a life.
