P. v. Myers CA1/2
On August 20, 2020, shortly after 10:00 p.m., Myers was observed driving at a high rate of speed on Highway 199, tailgating other vehicles, and crossing double yellow lines to pass vehicles. He cut a corner and drove onto a gravel shoulder on the opposite side of the road, losing control as the vehicle fishtailed and crashed into a car that was parked on the shoulder. A man standing outside the parked car suffered a broken leg which, at the time of sentencing nine months later, still caused him pain, limited his activities, and required medical attention; he also suffered “PTSD-type [post-traumatic stress disorder] symptoms.” Both cars sustained major damage, and the victim had incurred $25,000 in medical bills at the time of the hearing.
