When vulnerable road users are killed in other countries there is strict liability. That is, the driver is assumed at fault unless proven otherwise.
In America it's the perfect crime.
"I'm so sorry officer I never saw them."
Case closed Lou.

Which is why yesterday, in my mid-sized Southern City: after a motorcyclist hit&ran off the Interstate (dead, into a guardrail; 35, helmet'd/licensed, obeying traffic laws), the local biker clubs put down their swords and rallied in the median well after the accident occurred (as my local newspaper noted).
With all these millions already-spent on Flock cameræ, and T-DOT having dozens more (of their own)... you'd think we'd'a'already caught these guys.!?

It's so sad that lack of accountability results in fleeing manslaughterers... but here we are.
