Wow, where does the media get its information from. I could be a reporter if all you have to do is assume something and not investigate. First of all, he WAS wearing his seatbelt, the first to arrive on the scene was the person who took it off to try to get him out. And second, he didn't "fail" to stop, he was unconcious because an EYEWITNESS saw him slowly drifting into the opposite lane. So I suggest that you get more information so you don't continue to belittle yourself publicly and not tell the truth about other peoples stories.
