Roan Bloore, 24, was found face down in nine inches of water where he had been for 10 minutes with oxygen having been cut off to his brain, resulting in organ failure
His grieving dad Michael said he and his wife were not able to say goodbye as they were stuck in traffic.
If I were in his situation, I’d be weaving through traffic and driving on the shoulder to get to my son. It honestly blows my mind how some people are so law-abiding that they literally will not commit even a relatively minor infraction (in the grand scheme of things) when it matters most, even during a literal emergency. No sensible jury would convict this man for breaking traffic laws in this situation.
I’d gladly do my 6 months to a year in jail if it meant that I got the chance to say goodbye. This father is unbelievable.
Edit: I was wondering why my inbox blew up this morning… I’m not reading all these replies lol. It’s not good for my mental health.
I stand by what I said. Shame on all the bad parents out there who wouldn’t do anything and everything for their kids. Y’all disappoint me. And shoutout to the four of you who agree with me. You get it.
You have entirely too little information about the actual events to justify any of your conclusions so your comment looks like nothing more than virtue signaling
Can’t wait for the article “Selfish asshole kills 8 year old rushing to hospital to pretend saying “goodbye” to a brain dead warm body counts for anything.”
Reading comprehension is also low, it says the police escorted them to the hospital. So enjoy your psychotic fantasy of checks notes running red lights and driving on the curb to get to your already brain-dead son. We can all collectively hope you never have an excuse to be so reckless, and if you do, you are the only one who has to suffer for it.
Might not be such a simple call to make (would endanger others). It might not even be about the law, its probably pretty hard to think after hearing that news.

Will you push it and be ready to kill a 16 Y.O to make another father mourn?
Because by “weaving through traffic” and “taking chances”, that’s usually what ends up happening.
Sometimes. Maybe even often. I’m not so sure about usually.
Somehow you made this about you and how you’re a better person than them. Good job.

Sometimes there’s no shoulder to drive on. In a city it’s pretty much impossible to weave through traffic.
