I think in this case it wasn’t planned to leave the scene of the accident. The terror of what had happened most likely didn’t allow this ninety plus year old woman to think clearly.

A good friend in his early thirties was driving along a street one day years ago and a young man stepped from between two cars directly in front of his vehicle. The young man was killed instantly even though my friend tried to stop and then help him after the impact. My friend confided to me that he almost left the scene, he was so horrified and scared even though he couldn’t avoid the accident.

The suicide note from the deceased young man was found in his home after the accident and his death by vehicle was planned.

We all hope that we and our children and grandchildren would do the right thing if such an accident happened to them. We never know…
