26.08.2025 17:07 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The best part of this segment is how they flipped the great American journalistic tradition of using the passive voice when describing vehicular violence. "A pedestrian was struck and killed by a car" instead of "a driver with human agency killed someone using their car."
