A la "he ran into my fist." Doesn't matter. If she hit him, she officially "lost control of the vehicle." (Which by the way she had nudged, prodded, or menaced him with, several times, before the final assault...according to the article.)
Then leaving him there injured, that's a whole other offense.
I'm astounded (maybe shouldn't be) by the comments here in her defense. She escalated to physical assault severe enough to put him in the hospital, and people are basically saying he asked for it and deserved it.
“A la “he ran into my fist.” Doesn’t matter. If she hit him, she officially “lost control of the vehicle.””
I don’t see how you come to that conclusion. It says she was trying to drive around him and he leapt in front of the vehicle. How you can translate action on his part which led to his injuries into her responsibility is beyond me. If I leap in front of a train, the engineer has not “lost control” of the train.
