In short, drunk driver in truck swerves into on-coming lane and hits motorcycle. Man driving dies, woman passenger seriously hurt and loses unborn baby.

Why would you get on a death-mobile when you are pregnant (especially 7 months !) ?

the real question is, does the drunk driver face charges for killing the unborn child?

No charges will be pressed. The drunk driver is an "undocumented" worker. He will, no doubt, get off scott free. (ICE had asked for a detainer as well, but the police refused, so expect a lawsuit.)

kind of ****ty way of thinking about it. The future father is dead along with his unborn child for taking a ride on a motorcycle.

Keep on judging the victims though.

Yes, the drunk driver can be charged for intoxicated manslaughter of the unborn child under a law that became effective September 1, 2003 that allows the protections of the entire criminal code extend to "an unborn child at every stage of gestation from fertilization until birth." The law does not apply to "conduct committed by the mother of the unborn child" or to "a lawful medical procedure performed by a physician or other licensed health care provider with the requisite consent." (SB 319, Prenatal Protection Act)

No, it's a fetus. People wanted to humanize the piece though.

I can guarantee you that the court will consider it a baby. Double standard.

You and I both know that the court isn't always right.

My wife and I both ride. When she found out she was pregnant, she stopped riding. The doctor had told her it was safe through the first two trimesters, but she did not want to risk it. She started riding again when our daughter was about a year old, but neither of us ride nearly as often as we used to.

At 7 months it would be viable.

I think someone should do a study to see if there is any link between stuttering and 3rd trimester motorcycle riding by mom.

Maybe, but viability does not matter in Texas.

Still think it's odd that a viable fetus has less rights than a living fish or snail or lizard or kitten or whatever...

In Texas, a fetus has the full rights of a living being with the full applicability of the Texas Penal Code in crimes against fetuses (fetii?), other than actions taken by the mother against the fetus or a physician performing an authorized and recognized medical procedure.

just wondering, what was the dead count of ROT Rally this year ?

although I moved away from Lake Travis a little over a decade ago, the dumb ass bikers that were out there each year while ROT was going on,...were pretty much a gathering of scum

Requires natural or actions against oneself for this to be appropriate. The drunk driver intervening takes this out of play.

Did you read the article you moron? They were hit by an oncoming truck that veered into their lane.

You mouthbreathers think the "Play stooppid games when stupid prizes" and Darwin award **** is so funny that you rush to post when it wouldn't even apply.
