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.

Please explain how you came to the conclusion that speed was "the issue" in this unfortunate accident, since there was absolutely no report that the pick up truck was "speeding".
