Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Thank you for your interpretation of possible events. I encourage more to spend the amount of time/thought you have, to also consider what may have happened that night.
I vote for a charge, let the courts sort it out where...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
I do believe it was possible for the officer to pull out with the intent of blocking the path, or likely simply didn't see Clay. I do not believe that the intent of the officer was to injure/kill Clay or cause a collision. I...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Please offer your full interpretation of events. What are the possibilities based on your observations? I would really like to hear what your thoughts are on what both vehicles did that night.You have spent much time in an...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Thanks for this. I appreciate you looking at this in more depth. I hope that more will respond with posiblbe ways that they believe the officer was not at fault. Giver lads, I would really like to hear from you all. I am...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
happycrappy, can you remind me of my reference to this post? I don't recall. I can assure you that I believe at 50km/hr over the speeding offence would then become a Stunt Driving charge. I also do believe that at 1km/hr...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Thank you for your thoughts. Appreciate the time spent describing the layout. Would seem that anyone that simply attended the site(physically and not just what they read on the internet), all draw extremely similar...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Doesn't matter if officer could estimate closing distance. If he had clear view he would have seen the headlight for at least 12 seconds( if they looked), more than enough time to make whatever turning manouver decided.
If...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Rob, where did you come up with this? I find it quite interesting. Can you point me in the direction where this has any precedence?
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
I can't believe they even included this statement in their release. It really does look foolish, and if this is the evidence used to draw their conclusion, perhaps a new slightly more professional investigation should take...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
It sure is fluffy....... I really get a kick out of the low lighting conditions part too. Both vehicles were equiped with lights. At night the lights provide an even greater contrast with the background and a vehicle's...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
It is not very difficult to determine sightlines. Wouldn't be very difficult to determine tucked vs upright sightlines either. I was more interested in the sightlines of the officer, not Clay. The few inches of rider height...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Yes I believe the officer should get charged with HTA offense. Since you feel that a life was lost as a direct result of their actions, I can not understand how you wouldn't feel the same.
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Being charged with HTA would greatly change our knowledge of the situation. We would then get to know the officer's name, the officer would have the option to plead guilty, or better yet the officer could plead not guilty...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Do you believe as your previous posts would imply, that only one party may bare full responsibilty for the collision? If so, I completely understand why you are no longer involved in law enforcement...
Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.
Very true. Risking my life and others is a very large part of my decision to not ride street anymore. I lacked an ability to restrain while on the street on 2 wheels, I no longer street ride......and have become a grandpa...
