"Suspensions fail to stop lethal driver"
[Gloria O'Neill] has been involved in at least 15 collisions, often in rented or borrowed cars. Her licence was suspended as far back as 1978, at age 21. In 1984, it was suspended again. Still forbidden to drive, she got a new licence under a different name. When that was suspended, she got another one.
Five years ago, after she dragged a pedestrian to his death in a crosswalk, a court banned her from driving for 10 years.
AND SHE'S STILL DRIVING TODAY!
lah-dee-dah-dah... driving around most likely uninsured and either without a licence or with a new one under a different name.
i was reading this story and it just kept getting more and more ridiculous! this woman has no respect for the road, for motor vehicles, for other motorists, for traffic laws, for the licencing system (but i guess most people don't have this one...), for the police, for pedestrians... the list goes on. and certainly she has no sense of remorse.
i mean it's just like... GAH! i'm beyond speechless... she's a menace and they keep letting her back out on the streets!
that pedestrian incident? i can't even believe it...
According to court documents, Gloria O'Neill [...] was driving [...] toward traffic stopped at a red light. She had borrowed the car from her landlord, telling him she needed to visit her daughter.
Witnesses were shocked when she pulled into the left-turn lane, drove through the red and down a hill.
Any reasonable motorist would have ample time to see [the victim] in the crosswalk, experts in collision reconstruction testified.
He was dragged under her car for 26 metres.
As bystanders rushed to help, she sped off at up to 100 km/h, nearly hitting another motorist head-on.
geezes! you should really go a read the rest of the story... then we can all muddle in outrage together.
seriously, how do these people get licences?? why did it feel so hard for me to get a valid one when people like this have multiple suspended ones? f*ck!
