[QUOTE="SpartaChris, post: 381376, member: 1007"] I wish people would get this right and stop thinking this case was as black and white as they like to make it sound. Plainly put, the Stallworth incident is not a good comparison by any stretch. The facts in the Stallworth case proved the accident would have happened even if he blew under the legal limit. Stallworth didn't swerve up onto the curb and clip the pedestrian while driving in a drunken stupor; The pedestrian stepped out in front of oncoming traffic in an area that didn't have a cross walk or a crossing sign. To put it bluntly, the area where the accident happened wasn't an area where the pedestrian should have been trying to cross the road. To Stallworth's credit, he never once tried to deflect blame or responsibility. He owned it from day one, plead guilty and payed a multi-million dollar settlement to the family. And he never once tried to blame the pedestrian, even though the evidence proved it was the pedestrian's fault. [/QUOTE]
