      Shame on you for saying he fled the scene. He probably never knew that he hit her. Have you ever driven a 18 wheeler?

        He hit a child across the street from a playground and public library. Regardless of what type of vehicle you are driving are you that unaware of your surroundings?!??!?

          She may have had her head down with her face in a cell phone and walked right out in front of it or under it. Just sayin’.

      1st of all, it was a female truck driver. 2nd, people shouldn’t assume ANYTHING until you know the whole story. I am heartbroken this happened & my heartfelt prayers are with both families

        “…people shouldn’t assume ANYTHING until you know the whole story”! You might want to take your own advise. It was not a female driver, and it shouldn’t matter either way!

      Other comments are absolutely right about not realizing you hit anything with those big rigs. It is more than possible.

      Currently it looks like Movable Type is the top blogging platform out there
      right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?
