For several seconds in the video, he turns the camera around to show the scene on the bridge where you can see multiple people and bicycles lying on the roadway. “Babe, I killed somebody, babe.”
… and he calls some random people after he mows down the cyclists, but not 911? How is he only facing misdemeanor charges?!?
90% of these I see involve a pickup.
Maybe the driver should be forced to drive compact vehicles for several years.
That said it does seem like it could be a texting and driving situation which would warrant more punishment.
I'm usually against technology lock outs but I do long for cars to be able to limit phone functionality while driving.
