It rolled, but never touched the ground. It looks like it went off the road, dug in, and flipped endo (end over end), and bounced off the trunk, and landed on the bottom (or landed on the tail or nose and settled upright). It never touched ground on the sides or top, but did "roll". You are thinking the wrong axis.
"intentionally or knowingly causes physical contact with another when the person knows or should reasonably believe that the other will regard the contact as offensive or provocative." TX Statutes Penal Code 22.01.
Or try 242 of your CA laws. "A battery is any willful and unlawful use of force or violence
upon the person of another." Some places, like Texas, count battery under assault. Other places separate them out. Assault and Battery is a single charge in Texas, under the Assault statute. That's the most common now, as states simplify and unify penal codes over time. But California still has battery listed explicitly separately. So it wouldn't be assault in CA, but would be battery. But looks to still be a felony, but I'm not as familiar with CA's laws as some other places.
Touching someone without their permission is assault. That you don't know the basic definitions of common words doesn't change them to match what you'd like them to be.
What are the rules on petitions? Was the vote limited to the city limits, and the petition open to any registered TX voter in Austin at the time?
Otherwise, those that wanted to see it on the balllot didn't vote for it. I've done that. Signed something to get it on the ballot when I would have voted against it. Sometimes the subject needs to be voted on, even if you don't personally want it. Or they just changed their minds, or couldn't be bothered to vote.
He found "a" key in the parking lot. He couldn't have known what it was for. So he opened a door with it to verify it was in fact the key to the building, so he could turn it in to the correct people. Then, having not walked in and rummaged around, turned in the key. And was arrested for breaking and entering, when legally, he only broke.
Why not? I've seen it before. Pushing someone out of the way of a falling piano is assault. But permission is generally given after the fact, given that the battery was performed for the benefit of the "victim".
Yeah, like my high school science teacher. Gained 100 lbs in 3 years, got diagnosed with a thyroid problem. Went on medication, lost 100 lbs in 5 years. No changes to diet or habit in those 6 years. All her fault for being lazy.
The secure facilities generally use the crappy hash (same as a finger-swipe on a laptop). They don't store your fingerprint, and couldn't use it for anything else, and wouldn't be able to search a fingerprint database with the stored hash. Defense, medical, and police store the full print. But those are jobs, and one could easily find another job that didn't require that. Interestingly, the prints don't end up in the public database. You can't run a print against everyone who gave a print for being a private investigator in Texas. You can get the print for a specific person, though (should their license still be active). Last I checked, they didn't store the prints electronically, and stored the cards, and destroyed them when expired.
Taxi is, like, "I'll go to the cab rank and hail a cab, or hail one down on the street."
Uber is a private limo service, and in NYC is regulated as such and abides by those rules. They aren't a taxi service, as "taxi" means there are requirements around car labeling and in some places required by law to pull over for a hail (especially in places where taxi bigotry was strong). As Uber does not have cab ranks, and does not respond to hails, they are not a "taxi" service in any definition of the word. Yes, they were being disingenuous when they called themselves "ride sharing", but whatever they are, it's most certainly not a "taxi" service.
Quit trolling. The "ride sharing" services aren't, but they are also not taxi services. That you have to lie to make them look bad only makes you look bad, and them look better in comparison.
"The motorcycle then hit the Civic that police have said was legally stopped on the side of the road with its hazard lights flashing."
I'm not sure that'll be a good result for the suing wife. A motorcycle driving into the back of a legally stopped car seems to be the fault of the motorcycle, not the employers of the legally stopped driver.
First, how does requiring fingerprint-based background checks put money in the City's pocket?
The last time I had a fingerprinting done in Texas for a background check, I had to go to the local police department and pay them cash (only cash, and no change given) for a police officer to print me. They had to stamp it to verify that the prints were from the person on the ID, so you can't print yourself and "borrow" someone else's fingers. The fee wasn't huge, but it was a fee paid to the local city. There was a separate fee to the state for the actual background check.
Do you know what the process is for fingerprint background checks, or were you just assuming it wasn't a revenue source?
Couldn't Uber and Lyft simply require prospective drivers to foot the cost for their own fingerprinting?
That's the standard practice, but is illegal. Requiring an employee to pay to work was outlawed in the 1800s, as part of Reconstruction. The laws have since been loosened, bot early post-slavery practices included "hiring" a person at $1 to work a field, and charging him a $2 fee to work the field. Then, once in debt, require he work off the debt. It resulted in permenant indentures servitude, which is more commonly called slavery. So outlawing slavery didn't work, and laws were put in place, especially in the south (and some federal laws) that ban an employer from requiring costs to work. They are not commonly applied, but for someone like Uber, I'm sure the crowd here would have no qualms equating Uber to slavery, and holding Uber to laws that are never used these days.
A libertarian would be for an absence of checks, but increased penalties for violating them. Have the Uber driver sign that they have no criminal past (no check needed, no work by the gvt), but if someone is found to have lied, pull their license, and black-list them from doing it again (subsequent infractions punished by jail time). That's a more libertarian mechanism.
By your logic, advertising and entertainment of all kinds doesn't contribute to GDP. GDP is measure of "finished goods and services" and an advertisement is a finished service. When you pull out "non productive" services, as defined by you, you just cut the GDP of the country, by lots in countries like the USA with a service economy.
I'd also add that she was obviously not the person to be driving said vehicle at said speed.
Finally, you hit the target. Equipment problems are less than 1% of direct cause (contributing is higher), so mentioning that is just an excuse for the bad drivers, not an actual cause.
Nearly every single accident is caused by someone driving too fast for the conditions.
That's closer to 0%. Unless you use the US government's definition, where driving too slow is "too fast for conditions". Everyone who crashes would have avoided the crash if everyone involved were at a complete stop. That makes "speed" an issue of opinion, not fact, and to increase the ability to pull over anyone at any time and subject them to a search and questions, "speed" has become the boogeyman. The only example of a "speed related" crash is the Mercedes CLR going fast enough to get airborne. Sure, you could claim that was not speed related, as the issue was damage from an earlier contact, so it was equipment fault, but that's as close as you can get to "too fast" causing a crash. Driver exceeding skill is 99.44% of what people call "speed related".

Never in a month of sundays did that car roll.

Sad when that's the best result we can hope for.

No, I'm not going to pull up the trailers themselves and crunch the numbers. Too much time, and it doesn't matter.

That's not true. Everyone involved has a choice.
Permission can't come in hindsight.

When Putin gets more electoral votes than Trump, you'll see why the Russian mob cares.

You are a medically wrong fat-hater. Why do you hate fat people? Did your mother's obesity take her too early from you?
Yeah, wow, some idiot jackasses don't understand that hailing a cab is required in the legal definition of "taxi" in most places. What ignorant fools.
And which definition would you like me to use? "to cause (an aircraft) to move along the ground under its own power,"?
