The thing that has bothered me the most about his story is that he said he saw the guy crossing and flashed his lights at him. Then he proceeded to hit him.
Now, if I am driving and see someone crossing in front of me, the last thing I think of is to flash my lights. My foot is going straight for the brake pedal long before my hand can find the lightswitch.
I keep getting the impression that he thinks the flashing of the lights absolves him of full responsibility in some fashion.
The whole thing sucks.
