Sloth Kills Four

Four people died in this fiery crash. The one who survived was not
wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the vehicle - how's that for
irony? No doubt it was caused by some Sloth who pulled out in front of
this poor guy, causing the man to swerve and run off the road. After
the crash, the untouched Sloth puttered away into the darkness, and
was long gone by the time the police arrived.

Which is, of course, exactly how Sloth Kills. Right, Pacifico?

A speed boat racer was the driver which means he's a highway speeder
too. This was another case of speed kills.

Trolling, are we, Scott?

If one is not speeding, and someone s-l-o-w-l-y pulls out in front of
him/her, does the approaching driver not have ample time to avoid a
collision (unless that same driver is either drunk, asleep, or
having a heart attack)?


Speed kills. Incidental sloth just speeds up the process. :-)

Damn, must've been one of those giant ground sloths. They do have nasty

Don't let Jeff the Pacifico drinker hear you impugn Lance's character
like that... He's likely to lambast you with an Ad Homonem attack.

Umm... No, one does not. I can vouch for that as per my accident last
Friday. I'm sure my car would vouch for that too...

Proof?

<sounds of crickets on a warm summer's evening>

Just as I thought, no proof what so ever....

'Ya mean like 41 in a 25?

Yes, but never deliberately. In fact i got a speeding ticket about 5
years ago for doing 41 in a 25. I just about kicked the cops teeth in
cause i was sure he was lying. No way the SL on this wide open
stretch could be 25, i thought."

Got proof, retard, or is this merely another example of your failure to
comprehend what you're reading?

What sloth driver? Why do you assume that there was another vehicle besides
the RV involved at all? Nothing in the article you referenced mentioned
another vehicle at all. The leading possibility for the cause seemed to be
that the driver of the RV fell asleep. From the reference -

"Investigators will likely never know the cause of the collision, but Peña
said it's possible the driver, who was not identified, fell asleep."

You are something - you create your own special class of evil drivers (sloth
drivers), vilify what is often reasonable and safe driving behavior, and
then blame crashes on sloth drivers that probably don't even exist.

Perhaps you should discuss this fixation with a mental health professional.
