So... what you're saying is that, because you haven't seen the video and weren't there to witness the accident, and aren't familiar with the road in question nor the conditions present at the time, then the car must ipso facto be at fault. The cop has seen the video, so he must be lying because it disagrees with your narrative.
"Disagree with me, and you're nothing but a mass murderer."
Hey, I've got over 3000 hours on Payday 2, where you murder cops by the score, if not by the hundred, and killing civilians only costs a nominal cleaning fee. It's a video game, so of COURSE I'm a mass murderer. I just haven't bought my fully semi-automatic [sic] military murder rifle yet.
And then there's the Borderlands franchise. And Overwatch. Various flavors of Team Fortress. Half Life and friends. At least in Killing Floor you're only killing zombies, but still. Over ten thousand hours killing people by clicking a mouse! I'm hopeless.

"And while the rotating crop of dollar-per-holler "consultants," think tankers, lobbyists and PR folks are already deriding the "chaos" and "uncertainty" created by states crafting their own rules..."
Of course, what a mess. It's not like large ISPs have to deal with different rules in different places up until now. Code and building practices being synchronized all across the U.S., and all.
It's not like each state has its own rules for wiring buildings, nor that it's different for residential, commercial and industrial. Nor different rules for outdoor wiring. It's not as though each town, borough, village, township, city, or other geographical political entity has its own laws and exceptions written to deal with local circumstances!
There's some poor guy in an office somewhere who has to deal with these rules. He spends most of his time sleeping and throwing paper airplanes, because these rules are nation-wide and unchanging. He has nothing to do.
I can understand why the big ISPs would object to different states making their own rules -- they are totally unused to having to alter their practices as they cross political boundaries. It would be SO UNFAIR!
Six month review? That's nonsense. He's not hoping for more data during the next six months. He's hoping that there won't be any more high-profile cases, that these were anomalies, and is burying his head in the sand.
