He did not "ignore"the sign. He didn't see it. He did not do this on purpose, was not drinking or doing drugs, etc. Yes, the facts are that this was a large stop sign, but there have been several accidents at the intersection over the past 20 years, including previous fatalities. Apparently, there are some trees in the area that obstruct some vision of the sign there as well. He pled guilty because he said that he did not want to cause the families a pain of a trial. The guy is showing 100% remorse and will live with this forever. It was a horrible mistake.
‘I just want to plead guilty. I don’t want you to plea bargain. I don’t want a trial.’ Mr. Sidhu advised me: ‘I don’t want to make things any worse. I can’t make things any better, but I certainly don’t want to make them worse by having a trial.'”
Brayford also expressed Sidhu’s deep sorrow over everything he caused.

“He wanted the families to know that he’s devastated by the grief that he’s caused them,” Brayford said. “And he’s overwhelmed by the expressions of sympathy and kindness that some of the families and players have expressed to him in spite of the fact their grief is entirely his fault.”

Of course he should be accountable to the fullest extent of the law. I never implied or said otherwise. What happened makes me sick to my stomach. My uncle was killed a few years back due to someone blowing a stop sign, so I get it. It hurts all the time. My point was this guy didn't do it on purpose and wishing for him to get beat up in prison isn't going to accomplish anything. It was a sickening tragedy, and it doesn't make me a snowflake if I don't believe the guy should be given the electric chair. Yes, you are right, the crash happened during the daylight. The speed limit on the road is about 60 mph and closer to the intersection it is 35 mph. The driver was 29 and looks like he wasn't driving trucks for a long time - - the investigation is still isn't complete, and so his employer could face some liability as well. We still don't know (didn't find anything on line) why he blew the stop sign in broad daylight if he wasn't impaired. There has to be an answer even if it was that he was daydreaming and not paying attention. I didn't read anywhere that he fled the scene. It is not "false" that there have been several accidents at that intersection the past 20 years. Absolutely true. I never said they all had fatalities. As you state correctly, there was an accident with 6 fatalities 20 years ago. I have read that the intersection is dangerous and some obstructions of view should be addressed. I have not driven through that intersection and neither have you - - and we don't have the official report yet from the investigators. I mourn for the victims just like you. Just because I'm not ready to have the driver to put to death doesn't mean I deserve to be in the cell next to the truck driver. Unreal comment from you Polar Bear. You don't know me or anything about me personally, so leave the personal BS out of it next time.
