Leaving the scene of a vehicle accident-even a single car into a tree or a ditch-is a crime or when did it stop being a crime

[@Jeremyho439]

Lots of people dump their old RV trying to avoid spending and money.

[@MatthewMello]

Was there a crash? What did he/she hit?

[@frederickbooth7970]

The contractor did a nice work of repairing the burned up stretch of I-5. Done quickly & looks very nice & smooth. Don`t travel that area of freeway much anymore so would have to rely on others to say how smooth it really is.

[@DanBrando]

It’s very smooth

[@lisad476]

Wow....abandonment of a load...hazardous materials...you would think charges pending.

[@TheCommunicationCoach]

A true, massive fail on all accounts!! Cowardly and reckless.

[@kevinhatley9824]

That driver should absolutely be prosecuted. He caused tons of damage and ruined thousands of people's commute home from work. He should definitely spend some time in jail for it

[@alwinter]

Did you even watch the video? They said it was a mechanical issue and that they do not believe any criminal activity took place. Put your pitchfork away.

[@KeithRodri]

@@alwinter and he still left… that’s the crime part. Idk about jail but fines for sure

I’ve seen far too much of Hamilton lately.

[@TheCommunicationCoach]

Agreed, one second is too much of his BS.

[@carlerickson74]

What?! No criminal activity?! WTF! How about leaving the scene of an accident? Causing hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage due to negligence? Come on! Use your heads people!

[@jkwfo]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THERES NEVER ANY CRIMINAL ACTIVITY IN OREGAYNIAN TERRITORY

[@visualverbs]

I don't miss living in a city.

[@GordCurry-it4xo]

Old bs

[@MarvinThiessen]

Hey, Don Hamilton, it's just road repair, not rocket science, calm down already.

[@TheCommunicationCoach]

I hate that guy.

[@frederickbooth7970]

@@TheCommunicationCoach I wish they would get another spokesman.

[@oldschooldiy3240]

"No criminal activity"? Other than destroying thousands of dollars worth of roadway? Other than abandoning personal property on a highway? Other than evading law enforcement? Got to be caliphony....

[@matthewwilson5019]

This actually happened in Washington. I passed by that the very day it happened

[@alex-sensei]

[@chrisgattman4975]

Most likely back in Mexico by now! Apparently leaving the scene of a accident is no longer a crime since it happens so much.

[@TheCommunicationCoach]

"...no crime..."?? Really? LOL, of course there is, he took off and now "will be interviewed in the future, but we don't know when." Which means he'll skip out of the country back to his own and good riddance. Or, are they giving him true "sanctuary?" Disgusting.
