You are so right in all what you are saying but this is far beyond the intelligence and the moral integrity of our so called government officials! Rome burns while they play, or they are in a coma! The criminals are really 'us', but not me, who elect them!

It would have reduced the possibilty of the accident happened , yes, but not stopped it. But, hit and run could have happened either way. It happens evety where and has nothing to do with driver license ligitimacy, road condition, driver respecting the code. It was based on the morals of the criminal.
