We don't know, he may have had a medical emergency. He didn't have to be homeless, we should wait until the facts comes out before judging this person.

I see people laying in the street and the side of the road all the time here in Houston. This should have never became the normal or average. Now we are just like a 3rd world country. Thanks To politicians and law Makers.

Distracted driving is a crime in most jurisdictions.... Unless you're a cop.
