The law says she has an obligation to not operate her vehicle in an unsafe manner or impact other persons or property.

This is black and white: she broke the law. Stop victim blaming.

At no point did I imply in this thread she didn’t break the law. She obviously did. Her charges have nothing to do with the crash itself because she wasn’t at fault. Cyclist ran a red light that’s just a fact. The crime she committed was never even stopping to check if the guy is okay.

Someone running a red light doesn’t make hitting someone legal.

They’re going after the more serious charges. If those don’t stick, they can try for the others. That’s how NJ does it. The crime with the steeper penalties take priority.
