Justice served

You might remember the thread from October about rider David Berridge of
Sunnyvale, who was killed on the two-lane section of Highway 1 north of
Monterey near Moss Landing. A northbound driver attempted a pass over
the double yellow in the fog but hit the car she was passing, which went
out of control, first off the right shoulder then into the southbound
lane where it hit Berridge's Harley head-on. The driver of the car that
caused the crash by making the illegal pass pled guilty and has been
sentenced to two years in prison. See details here:

Thanks for posting that, Dan. Berridge was my next door neighbor, much
of the time, an all around nice guy. His mother still hasn't managed
to bring herself to sell his old pickup truck, nor the Camaro that he
was restoring to running condition when we moved in here next door.
I'm glad that in this case, the court was able not to overlook the
obvious.
