Blown tires are usually caused by extreme wear, lack maintenance, neglect etc., and debris in the roadway does not make it OK to move into on-coming traffic lanes, causing deadly head on collisions...So even if this were the case, the person would still be in the wrong and liable civilly and possibly criminally.

No, you are way off base legally.

There are totally different standards of proof for civil and criminal cases. That's why they are pressing for a criminal prosecution. If the state can convict him, the civil case is a lay down winner. Winning the civil case doesn't help at all in the criminal case, however.
