"While operating a commercial semi-truck with a trailer, Singh allegedly attempted an illegal U-turn while driving on the highway. This resulted in the trailer jackknifing and colliding with a minivan " leaving all three of the minivan's passengers dead, according to officials."

If you're looking for an employer to face some consequences......here you go.

Negligent Entrustment.

But it's going to be civil only....policy limits and perhaps some punitive attached....which is not covered by insurance.

Can we get a criminal background check on the dead people, or were they not black?

Probably nothing, since that's perfectly legal.
What do you think should happen?

There must be a portal to hell here somewhere, because I agree with Snoofy.

"Three innocent people were killed in Florida because Gavin Newsom's California DMV issued an illegal alien a Commercial Driver's License"this state of governance is asinine," a DHS spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News

How does a government, with a straight face, go after an employer for hiring someone after they issued them a drivers license?

Sounds like the government wants this person here as well? Wants to take advantage of their presence. their contributions, etc.

Did the republican chamber of commerce fund Newsom's campaign so he would issue these drivers licenses? That's the reason offered to explain why local law enforcement does nothing to the employers.

How did the republican (that's a joke...it's california) chamber of commerce convince the State of California to do this?

Florida does not issue illegals a CDL. CA should be more like Florida.

DeSantis would sell his grandma for California's economy.

Probably not through that precise mechanism.

But there's no doubt that California Republicans understand the need for people to drive California Trucks full of California Food.

Maybe ask one of your Kansas farmers about it?

Agreed. There's also no doubt that California Democrats understand it equally.

Unless you're going to suggest California Democrats aren't smart enough to understand that need.

DeSantis just handed his wife a multi-million dollar state contract. It's good to be King in Florida.

Not an obfuscation from the subject of the thread, a comment to Alex in #11.

Anyone at all.

He wasn't illegal to work, he had work authorization, thats how he received his CDL.

California allowed him to "earn" his CDL. It allows non citizens to get certified.

My guess is those Republicans didn't want illegal immigrants to get drivers licenses.

Just watched the video.

The truck drivers reaction is emotionless. Like he could care less. Even the video afterwards there's no remorse.

Snoofy will be along any moment to claim its the mini van drivers fault.

Any opportunity to put ALL immigrants in a negative light.

Right? This is WAY more important than the Epstein Files!

Never let a good opportunity for immigrant bashing like this go to waste maga maroons!

Makes one wonder how many American tourists cause accidents in other countries.

In Europe, as you know, they drive on the left side of the road. I can imagine Americans screw that up all the time. But them damn immigrants! One really screwed the pooch here so let's hang em high! Make an example out of him.

My brief AI search only turned up one death caused by driving in the wrong side of the road (by a Chinese tourist no less) but hundreds of accidents caused by tourists driving on the wrong side of the road.

Don't remember hearing about any of them.

The 300 sack of child rape cracked jokes about the firefighter who had his head blown off at the Butler, PA klan rally.

I'll be doing this for the next four years, or until I'm sent to the camps, whichever comes first.
