    Is it me or are there getting to be more and more hit-and-runs?

    Sad and angering at the lack of so many things this highlights.

    Yes, I saw that! Now lets see what type of "punishment" the person will get once they're eventually caught. Unfortunately I suspect it won't be much.

    Such a shame. We had a cyclist killed up here on Thursday by a hit and run driver. He was the 2nd cyclist fatality in 6 days for the area.

    Who knows what the driver will get if he ever gets caught.

    I just can't fathom the mind of the driver who would drive back to the scene and drive away! So evil!!

    +1, it is just crazy. Bad enough to be hit, but then these drivers take off.

    It's like they go back, think, "eh, they won't make it. hmmm, don't see anyone around so no witnesses ... time to go, they'll never catch me."
