Vetseun Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 The driver will first sober up..Seek good legal representation and then hand him /herself over. Happened in our accident, our hit and run driver was however apprehended whilst still under the influence. His attorney claimed that he had been so traumatised by the accident that he fleed the scene, went home and started drinking. Thus, when the law arrived at his house, he was under the influence. The legal system needs to make a decent example of somebody.
DJR Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 The driver will first sober up..Seek good legal representation and then hand him /herself over...............Yup, we've seen that so many times in the past few years it is just not funny anymore. You can add that the cops don't go to any trouble to try and find the absconded driver, certainly not while he may still be drunk, or while his lawyer wraps up the golf game!
Markellis Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 No sober driver fails to see a group of 17/18 cyclists.
Frosty Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Very sad. His wife responds in the below https://rekordcenturion.co.za/169336/update-wife-holds-fond-memories-centurion-cyclist/There is an Andrew Randall listed as a user that I know I’ve had a few replies with each other. His profile shows he is from Centurion, and I fear we have lost another Huber. RIP

Spokey Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Appalling, so sorry to read this. It hurts that the bastards can evade the full extent of the law with such ease.

Mojoman Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Terrible....this country needs to clamp down hard on people leaving the accident scene. There should be a mandatory sentence on this like 5 years at least. But as many have pointed out even when this low life is eventually caught it will be too late and he will get minimal punishment.
eccc whippet Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 And then what does the info help for? (Respectfully asked)Absolutely nothing...like the drunk who drove into the back of our group and killed Jared and Richard...enjoying life with his family...sometimes we need to to take care of things ourselves...the saying an eye for an eye shouldnt be taken so lightly.

And people wonder why the people in the townships take matters in their own hands and stone offenders to death. They know that nothing ever happens to the offenders, or they get off very lightly compared to the crime they committed.
