He found what he was looking for.

Is the dumbass going to be given a ticket for unsafe driving and littering and get the EMT bill?

Some dumbasses were told as kids to go play in the highway by their parents and they did.
Some of the dumbasses still do.

Seems car/bicycle/pedestrian wrecks tend to blame the rig. I'd speculate the pedestrian was at fault in about half of those incidents. I tend to look both ways before crossing, and in 70+ years have never had a close call. No close one either on a bike or motorcycle.
