Truth. When I had a Prius I one time tried to race a van from a stop light. The van beat me and didn't even know I was trying to race him.

Rashee appears to have lost some teeth in the accident

The driver's door was smashed. It probably couldn't open.

I did google. It's unclear to me if it's just a brand, like a Affliction, or based on a real thing.

The more I think about this the less sense it makes that Rice would just walk off. The actions do seem like those of a bunch of guys who stole the cars. Even if Rice was one of them why wouldn’t he hang with the vehicles since the cops would obviously know who owns the car and want to talk to him. Makes no sense.

I'm assuming he was drunk or high and perhaps thought that the penalty for being drunk/high would be worse than simply leaving the scene. If he is drunk/high he's also not thinking clearly.

But I dunno.

Yep. Big homo because I used to drive a economical car. But I got with Chiefshrink to pray the gay away and I'm now cured!

Again - maybe just blind dumb luck, but that seems to be all he'd be looking at for the moment.

Is Leaving the Scene of an Accident Considered a Felony?

If an accident involving death or severe bodily injury and the individual chooses to leave the scene, this may result in felony charges. A third-degree felony in Texas can result in prison time from two to ten years and fines of up to $10,000.

A lesser felony charge may result if the injuries are less severe in a hit and run Texas accident. A lesser felony charge could still result in up to one year in jail or five years in prison and possibly a fine of up to $5,000.

When is Leaving the Scene of an Accident in Texas Considered a Misdemeanor?
If the total damages caused in the car accident cost more than $200, a class B misdemeanor may be charged, which can result in up to six months in jail. This can also apply if the driver hits an unoccupied vehicle or causes damage to a structure or landscape and fails to attempt to report it to the owner reasonably.

I was just ****ing with you. My brother did a LMGTFY to me the other day and I've been chomping at the bit to drop it on someone else.

After all the speculation about him driving or not (he was) the response here will be pretty interesting after his statement acknowledges he was driving.

I doubt as a first offender he would get jail time for this but the point made earlier probably makes the most sense — they must have believed the penalty for staying was going to be worse than the penalty for leaving.
