    The pedestrian that got hit wasn’t in the road they were off to the side. Even if we believe this guy just made an oopsie, and it wasn’t intentional, it’s clear this man is a danger behind the wheel. Also, this source is behind a paywall. Edit, went into the pages source code to pull the text of the article.

    A 77-year-old motorist who struck a protester at a No Kings rally and then left the scene says he has no recollection of the crash.“I don’t even remember it happening,” he told the Canton Repository in a telephone interview on Oct. 20. “It wasn’t anything like on purpose.”

      At the very least, that guy should have his license removed or be forced to have a behind the wheel examination.
