    Why haven’t they released the name of the person driving the vehicle that collided with him ? Thank you

  2. Do we really need to know that information? I’m sure that person is devastated, will remember his death for the rest of their life. If that driver was at fault, they may publish name. I was involved in a motorcycle death 30 yrs., ago, not at fault but my name was published. It needlessly compounds the pain..stays w/ you forever and ever.
