Only in San Freakshow

A driver who hit a mother and daughter crossing the street in South San Francisco is blaming the crash on glare from the "ring of fire" eclipse.

Police say the driver - a 26-year-old San Bruno woman - struck the mom and her 10-year-old daughter around 7:10 p.m. Sunday while the two were in a crosswalk. The girl suffered a broken right arm. The mother didn't suffer any serious injuries.

According to police, the driver said glare from the eclipse had left her unable to see for a time. She was not ticketed or charged with a crime.

The eclipse that left a golden ring when the moon passed in front of the sun was visible across a narrow strip of eastern Asia and the Western U.S.

So in other words, she was looking up at the sun instead of the road... since with the eclipse there would have been LESS glare...

Some people just shouldn't be allowed to drive.
