And Luigi just shot a gun too close to an executive.
No he didn’t. I didn’t see him in the video.
It happens
It needs to happen more.
When you wish upon a star…
What kind of shitty reporting is this. “Passed too close” to describe someone who drove towards a group of cyclists to bully them and seriously injured one of them?
What a shit article. The video shows him clearly endangering others for no fucking reason. He had plenty of room to pass safely, but chose to cut it close whole laying on his horn. He deserves the charges and absolutely zero sympathy.
More like “assault with intent to commit murder.” But he’s white and Conservative.
So hopefully he dies in prison. Nothing of value will be lost.
Passed too close or collided? One seems like a fine and one seems like prison time, two quite different level of crimes
The article contains video evidence of the driver aggressively honking then starting to pass with basically zero space to the group of cyclists, then colliding with one cyclist who subsequently crashed. The cyclist got injuries to his vertebrae, but has thankfully made what appears to be a full recovery.
The driver seems to be under the delusion that he did nothing wrong, and that he will “take it all the way to the supreme court”.
I think imprisonment is arguably warranted here.
“He hit my fist with his nose”
Close passing, attempted mass murder, who knows?
On an atomic level, the car molecules never actually touched the cyclist molecules due to the strong nuclear force repelling them. Therefore he just passed extremely close to them.
I shoulda been a lawyer.
Objection! Your honour, it’s not the strong nuclear force that repels atoms from each other but the electromagneticweak force from the atoms’ electron shells that repell other objects! Also a collision isn’t when atoms come into contact with each other but when they approach each other with sufficient force that the repelling force transfers momentum to those atoms, making their overall velocity harder to maintain control of and/or disrupting the solid structure of one or both objects involved.
One is a “your* car should be impounded permanent and your drivers license revoked” and the other is prison time.
*doesn’t matter who actually has the title; the car the was being driven.
So if I let a friend borrow my car and he does something stupid, I should lose the $50,000 machine that is absolutely critical to my employability?
This is how it’s actually done in denmark. I guess your friend would owe you $50,000 in such a case.

In March 2021, Denmark introduced new, stricter rules for reckless driving. This means, among other things, that a vehicle can be confiscated – even if it has been lent.
Calling threatening people’s lives as “does something stupid” seems pretty weird.
Passed too close leading to collision? He passed like. Three inches away from the bicycles, and one of the bicycles ended up hitting his car. Probably because when a big ass car passes that close you get sucked into it.
Point is, it wasn’t a bowling pins type situation where you could clearly call it attempted murder, but he definitely fucked up.
73 and recently had a stroke and a heart attack.
Man could die in prison, or behind the wheel again casually driving in a bike lane (or the ‘close passing lane’ as they call it in Cherokee county)…
We can’t put this boy in jail, he’s got his whole life behind him!
Fuck that article/website as well.
Jesus that site is cancer.
Try it with other things, “A Georgia gunman’s bullets caught on video colliding with a group of cyclists…”
Does it sound like it should definitely be a crime? Then it should probably be a crime with a vehicle too.
Talk about burying the lede…
I shot a bullet that went too close by someone and now I need to go yo prison! I didn’t do anything!
A Georgia chef prepared food too close to his customers. Now he could die in prison.
(The chef stabbed a customer to death).
Yeah no
Reading mode. Nasty of them 😠
Just post a mirror
Somebody has further down this thread.
Woosh
“I didn’t do anything wrong!” Insists the driver who got road rage and nearly killed someone with his car.
Make him watch that video every day he’s in prison
If people like this were actually capable of shame or rehabilitation prison would be a lot more useful.
