Gard Denies Recklessness In Fatal Accident

J M Gard disputes reckless driving after the collision on Kik River Road that killed Michael Kelleher and injured Woodrow Smoot. He recounts passing three cars at about twenty to twenty five miles per hour, failing to see a fast motorcycle, and asserts he tried to brake and drop behind to avoid the rider. The coroner's inquest and jury verdict are cited in the public statement.
