    Wow...

    I think a Bentley is one of those cars that you have to be a douche to drive one.

    Hmmm ... I thought this thread would be about hondo's self-reflection.

    Second that. This guy ought to be thankful every day all he got was five years' probation and community service. Guess not.

    What a piece of shit. And he got off with a way too lenient sentence. What does the victim being drunk have to do with his decision to flee the scene instead of slamming on the brakes, checking on the man he just hit and calling 911?

    You certainly can't condone his leaving the scene or not calling 911 but the article says that the guys body parts were strewn all over the road. What's the speed limit on the Ocean Parkway? 60? 70?

    So I'm wondering: the accident may have been entirely the fault of the pedestrian --maybe he wanted to commit suicide and jumped in front of the car.

    I think the guy who hit him is a douche of the first order but the article leaves a lot of unanswered questions about the actual accident.

    Someone needs to tell the guy that just because he has a nicer car doesn't mean his car deserves special treatment.

    The driver does deserve special treatment, however, in Rikers.
