    I just started working with him the past Friday, he was a really good guy who over came alot of hardships, and had such a beautiful positive soul. This is very sad :/ and fir you cj to be like I’m not blaming the guy on the scooter. The dude that’s being trusted behind the wheel a huge responsibility should be vilgant of his every moment. Now he killed a good man that had a mom dad and siblings. This is terrible.

    Not saying the one that was killed is at fault. On Untreiner there is a guy I have seen on a very small scooter with no lights. So dangerous.
