Outrageous. There has to be consequences for your actions, especially when people are killed. We care so much about pedestrian safety these days, but nothing is being done to make bike lanes safe. I'm constantly watching cars weave into the bike lane when I biking. double parking in the bike lane everywhere, 20 plus cars in a 1 hour bike ride easily. The city wants us out of our cars, but how can we when bike lanes are so dangerous?
Why are people complaining? The victim's family supported a lenient sentence. This is no one else's business.
Maybe the cyclist should stop running stop signs and red lights.
This is infuriating. I am convinced these cities San Francisco and Oakland are protecting criminals đ đĄ
The family is the type of people that after they get robbed, they blame themselves for having too much stuff.
This angers me.
This happens time and time and time again. It has happened several times in the past: a person drives drunk, kills someone, gets very minimal sentencing, gets out in a couple years and gets support benefits to boot.
You wanted progressive policies so don't complain when you get them.
This is a heartbreaking 'conclusion' to criminal negligence while driving. Shame on the Feds for negotiating this joke of a sentence!
welcome to friendly Fisco whre all values are meaningless and absurd
In an interview with VICE, former Vice-President Joe Biden had this to say about illegal immigrants arrested for drunk driving: âYou only arrest for the purpose of dealing with a felony that's committed, and I don't consider drunk driving as a felony.â……. Think these same people were outraged over Biden's statement that he doesnt consider DUI* a felony? This interview was recorded so you can see him saying it. You voted for this.
Welcome to the no accountability culture!
Don't know why so many do not recognize that the Leftist run governments have no compassion for we the people. They consider all criminals , regardless of how heinous the crime, as just poor souls who are down on their luck. So criminals are not properly charged. No mater how dangerous they may be to society, they are just let loose. . .to commit more crime. . .and fail to show up in court. Republicans may not have all the answers, but Democrats are responsible for the majority of all of our current problems.
Not even a felony? Does the driver and/or their family have political connections? Could see some getting revenge in a similar situation, since the punishment is so unjust.
Accountability no longer exists here
Whe ahould make judges do post judgement videos and have them explain in detail why and how they made the rulings they did.
Why was this a federal case to begin with???
This is absolutely insane! 81 years old he needs to be held accountable regardless of his ageđĄ
Oh my goodness.
Bicyclists get on my nerves (sometimes some of them are so arrogant as they decide which traffic laws they obey as we get to go 10 miles an hour) but?
He was drunk!!!!
This is an injustice!!!
He should be rightfully charged regardless of his age.
Yes. Four ton vehicles which is why you should not be driving in the street.
The gay bay in full tilt love of evil.
