It sounds like a terrible accident that can’t be blamed on anybody. The article said that the driver remained and rendered aid. Bad for everybody. But like someone said earlier,beats wasting away in a care facility. Although if you have a loving family they will keep you at home till the end.
You think the two loved ones I cared for for two decades would have been better off if they'd been run over? They're not here to ask, but if they were they'd tell you, very politely, where to go. And, after looking at that scene, I'm still betting the driver/s bear some responsibility.
