“I’ll wait...”

I’m very pleased you waited for my reply, Ol’ Dan Tucker-!
Simply because a coward of the state closed a roadway/highway doesn’t remove the responsibility of the persons on the roadway/highway.
You tell me the road is closed. I don’t care. I’m not stupid enough to be standing out there, let alone at night.
I can understand many people making excuses for the babyism that is tolerated of the young adults and those who want to pass as mature adults. Most of those making excuses have, in one way or another, facilitated the making of those dangerous folks out there, these days.
It doesn’t remove the fact that actions have consequences.
It is really a simple equation. She placed her life on the life, betting she was protected from anything and everything simply because someone told her the roadway/highway would be closed.
The person saying that is a coward to begin with, or the roads would not have been closed.
It’s like a game of dare, where instead of overdosing, she stood out there on the roadway and dared life to come at her for what she said she was a believer.
The person who hit her will pay a price. I’m fairly sure the coward that gave permission for the road to be closed will take great care to make sure the driver faces justice. Or, rather, what passes for justice, these days.
It doesn’t in any way remove her actions from the equation.
You may not like my opinion; your approval is not needed for my having an opinion.
What I do respect, is your willingness to spend your time in seeking an explanation from me.
“If everyone was jumping from the Brooklyn Bridge, would you jump from it?”
I always thought my mother was being a bit sarcastic with that question. As I age, I see she was trying to make a point, one which I was too young to see at the time.
Now I see not only how many people blindly jump, but how many people they want to literally drag over the bridge’s edge as they jump.
Pretty long-winded reply that still managed to avoid answering my one, single question to you.
Let me repeat for you again:
Please explain what reasonable and responsible actions the driver took that makes it okay to hit pedestrians standing on a freeway closed off by the police.
