A hit and run with injury is a felony in Arizona.  If you have an accident and you run it makes you look guilty.  Not to mention an accident with a bad injury might be survived if help is summoned.  


I think I eat too many Wheaties this morning or was it the coffee?

You might want to look at a Toyota Prius.  Wes Kent (like you both an 
ex-cop and 6' 8") has one, as it is one of the few cars he can fit in 
without hitting his head (both front and back seat).

And a lot of times two vehicles, one for the commute, and one for the 
family, can cost less over all, based on miles put on the big vehicle 
(cost of repair, gas, etc).

SUVs and Vans don't bother me when "used", it's the single person time 
that feels wasteful.  I know many people online that have a prius and an 
excursion (big huge ford SUV).  Just do the math, and figure out when/if 
a prius + your large vehicle would save the family money over all.

Same here.  I am sure that lilo was very careful in his riding, but just 
look around the U of A area, I am very surprised we don't have more hit 
and runs here.  Wes used to give out tickets by the bucket load to the 
students (he would sit near University and Park).

Of course most drivers also don't pay any attention to the bikes, and 
that is quite a problem as well.

The last issue is the hit-n-run.  If you hit someone or something, call 
for help, and stay put.  Running away from the problem might help now, 
but knowing that you killed someone, did not help to save his life, and 
did not come forward will (should) hurt for the rest of your life.
