Having been a diabetic for 38 years, I know what a low blood sugar is like. _IF_ it was that severe he should have pulled over and eaten some candy or something that a responsible diabetic would have with him. Some of you who have ridden with me know that I carry juice with me on trips for just such situations. Further, I'm sure he is a type II diabetes which is less prone to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) unless he took his meds and didn't eat anything That said, I think the sentence is average for the type of offense as many judges/juries say "there , but for the Grace of God, go I" Be truthful guys and gals, how many of you have gotten behind the wheel of your car after a beer or two. We are more agitated because he hit "one of us" Is his sentence just? Ask his victems family. Or, put yourself in his shoes and ask if the punishment suits the crime of running a stop sign that just happened to have a biker proceding through. I know I've blown threw a couple in my life, thankj God there was no one in the intersection. And since someone mentioned his name, how much time did Ted Kenedy serve.....about 100 years in the Senate
