lurkette, I am <b>so</b> sorry about the loss of your brother. I've seen posts where you've mentioned his death before, but I had no idea that it was so recent. My heart truly goes out to you...and your family.
Having read your detail of the accident...I'm not so sure that the driver was at fault. Maybe the whole nightmarish ordeal would make more sense if he was, but I believe that it was horrible example of being at the wrong place, at the wrong time. That doesn't make his death any easier to accept...nor, I believe, will destroying the life of the driver. I would hope that this is something that he/she will be carrying around, like a lead weight, for the rest of his/her life. Adding a lawsuit to the tragedy will not help anyone, in this case. I understand your families desire to find fault...to place blame...to find someone, or something, to villainize...to demonize. It would help to make some sort of sense out of a senseless tragedy. I just don't see how suing the driver will do justice to your brother's memory.
