well, that is an expensive wave! but in fact, it still should be the drivers responsibility! wonder, if the wave was given by a policeman, would he have to pay 1/2 the payment? um..um.. if anything, he'd be responsible for 10 - 25%. the driver is totally responsible for driving the vehicle. he needs to be aware of all situations. don't always take someone's word or actions. case in point, does eveyone believe everything they read over the www? if you ask two people about a story they read, you probably would get two different versions. so, it's the responsibility of the writer to put all the correct information. same goes w/the driver of the vehicle. next thing you will know, they will start charging passengers as part of the accident. so what if it was the passenger who waived him through? would you have charged the passenger and in turn charged the driver? um..um... what happened to being sole responsible? have we started charging the bar tender for serving the drink to allow that driver to drink and drive? or are we not making it the responsibility of the driver!? this is nuts!
