One thing we do know for sure is he did not have the right of way. Why do I say that? Right of Way in NYS is not set in stone. You have the right of way, when the other person gives it to you. If they don't, what you have is an accident. I learned this in 2 defensive driving courses I took.Two cars at an intersection, with lights. One gets the green light, but the one with the red decides to blow thruogh the red light. The car with the green light sees this, and says to themselves, I have the right of way. BANG! Accident. Who is at fault. Both in NYS. That is why NYS has No Fault insurance. The driver of the car that had the green light, says to their insurance adjuster, I had the green light, then I see this a-hole take the red. The insurance adjuster will say you saw them, why did you not stop? At NYCTA, and any transit DOB, they will tell you all this, and tell you to scan intersections as you approach them. You do not know who the other driver is, or what they are going to do. If it seems unsafe, stop. Defensive driving should be a requirement. It will teach alot, and some will better understand the No Fault insurance scam. |
