Now having read that article again to clarify some points lets see if I have this straight.

This woman stops in the left hand lane to help some ducks and doesn’t put her emergency lights on, now I take this was during the daylight hours.

Next, if I got this right, she was out of the car helping the ducks.

So that car was at a full stop and had been for several minutes which means that the people on the motorcycle had plenty of time to react to that and slow down.

The question is why didn’t the people on that motorcycle slow down and just how fast were they going?

I am not excusing her fault in this mess but if that guy had been more diligent that accident could have been avoided.

Well I now see from the pictures that this happened at night so that does change things some but even so she must have had her lights on. So surely if the people on that motorcycle had been paying attention you would think they would have slowed down and changed lanes.

How fast was that motorcycle going, looks like a good clip from the picture of that car.
