Although two other notions: first, it’d take some forensic work to determine beyond a reasonable doubt that it was the second crash and not the first that killed her (and that would be very hard to prove for certain)..Second, Del might skate completely, unless he gets tested on the spot. There’s no witness now to prove he didn’t have his lights on, and for all anyone knows Boo pulled out recklessly. Why, look, her cell phone is right there, with a logged call around the time of the accident. Inattentive teen!
