After a long school day, Brianna gets on her bike to ride home. She does not have her helmet on because she forgot to bring it with her for the day. Brianna gets to the intersection by the school and presses the walk button. She waits until the sign across the road tells her to walk and
begins to pedal across. At the same time, a woman is driving into the intersection. The sun is setting so low in the sky that the woman is having a
hard time seeing the stoplight. As she drives through the intersection, she hits Brianna, Brianna's head hits the pavement, immediately causing
her death. The woman who hits Brianna is distraught but so is Brianna's family. The woman ran a red light! What motive would the woman
MOST likely offer to explain her actions?
A
self defense
B
ignorance
C.
accident
D. insanity
