Intentional infliction of emotional distress. It's an actual claim. One moment that ended a stranger's life is now going to haunt all the innocent people who were forced to watch. May those who were forced to participate find peace of mind.

to the family member who said we didnt know the half of it and that he didnt try to kill himself we would love to understand it better, there are alot of people still shooken up over this tragedy. and I feel for the girlfriend and other drivers affected by this and saw this first hand my husband was there just after it happened and thank god he didnt kill him or others passing by. he may not have been a selfage man in his past but what he did risking his gfs life was definate. I feel 4 his kids

God, give us grace to accept with serenity The things that cannot be changed Courage to change the things Which should be changed, And the wisdom to distinguish The one from the other. Living one day at a time, Enjoying one moment at a time, Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace, Taking, as Jesus did, This sinful world as it is, Not as I would have it, Trusting that you will make all things right, If I surrender to your will, So that I may be reasonably happy in this life

Karmas a B****. He and his friends robbed and killed a man in 1992. That's what was haunting him. Then when he attempted to kill himself he almost killed some more people. At least this time it didn't work. And some of you said he was a good man!You feel bad for a killer.That's funny to me

Are those innocent people supposed to pay for the damage that was done to their cars.Imagine the emotional drama they've encountered!There's people on here that just drove by and they were startled!Never mind the people that actually crashed because he decided to end his life and almost take out 4 OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE!You not realizing that tells me exactly what kind of person you are!

Vera there's absolutely nothing wrong with me. I'm not sick in the head not one little bit, I'm just very honest! And let me guess you're a saint right? I DON'T CARE HOW HE FELT! The point is that's something you do in your own time! You don't involve innocent people. Would you go and do that? If there was something wrong with him well then he should't of been driving at all!By the way READ the other posts because I'm not the only one that said something about a law suit!

Vera read the last thing I wrote. I DON'T CARE how this person was feeling to end his life! That was supposed to be his personal business! Instead he involved innocent people. I'm not sick in the head I'm just a very honest person. You don't like it ask me if I care!And you're a saint right? Read the posts because I'm not the only one that mentioned that. Yes that's right I said read!

What the hell is wrong with you Yulichka??? Your sick in the head, LITERALLY!!! You have no idea how this person was feeling to end up ending his life...and now his family having to read your stupid and immature post...people like you make me SICK!!!! For you to bring up a lawsuit tells me what type of person you are...

What's wrong with RI is not people being selfish wanting money. It's people that are wayyyyy to nice and never get anywhere in this world. And to all you nice people out there that posted on here like I said previously you would've been talking differently if that was your kid, or your mom, or your dad, or your grandparents,or your bestfriend that hit the guy and almost died because he chose to take a dive.

My dad was there, ran over stuff with his bus!My car got splashed with the bloody water when the firemen was trying to wash the ground off! I was on 95S heading to work!That's disgusting period.I'm not a very mean person but if my brand new car was covered in blood and all types of stuff I'd sue his family to fix it.I don't think it's selfish at all to want money.People work hard to have the things they have and other people like to ruin that.

Some of you guys feel bad for the guy?He almost killed how many innocent people that were on their way to work sipping on their coffees!You would of had different opinions if you were the ones that hit him.Think about it suicide is a selfish act.You wanna kill youself put a gun to your head in privacy where you don't involve people that have no idea that you even exist til they nail you.The point is his gf seen him run out of the car and didn't attempt to even stop the guy!Nice relationship!

Wow; I made the same mistake as everybody else apparently; I thought he tried to kill himself TWICE in 2 minutes...and I really don't CARE what he was TRYING to do...even though you seem to have a GREAT explanation that you failed to give.

Killing yourself in a way that could lead to the COUNTLESS deaths of others (including his own girlfriend) HAS to be the blatant act of cowardice possible. That jerk was NOT a VICTIM and let's remember that...everyone who SAW it and were almost KILLED by his selfish act were. Period.

I am horrified at how many insensitive and heartless comments left on this page. Suicide is a horrible thing that leaves everyone touched hurt deeply forever. To speak of it as an inconvenience is disgusting. I ask ABC 6 to remove all comments from this page that do not honor, it not the man, his family, friends, and those in his life who mourn his loss.

What a shocking and terrible incident! I can't imagine what would cause such a thing to happen. My prayers go out to all families involved and to the drivers. It must have been such a terrible thing to go through.

This guy wasted my time and many others with delaying traffic all over the Providence region. I feel sorry for his family to have to hear the remarks about his behavior. His estate should have to pay for everybody inconvienced.

No one,as far as I can see, is blaming the driver in this case in any way.A gutless act as he could not do himself in. He put his death in an unexpecting commuters hands.May all involved recover quickly as possible!

Yet another accident with death resulting. To the shock of the truck driver who was not even at fault hitting some one and killing that person is always a hard thing. It sucks you people who always want to criticize the driver of a vehicle have no clue when its a accident how the driver feels. Even when a person is just crossing the street and a driver hits that person by accident it still stinks you have to live with it the rest of your life and listen to the garbage that others post .

My mother used to work in the office for a trucking company. She said "death by semi-trailer" was not that uncommon. People throw themselves in front of them to commit suicide, but don't even think about the person driving the car/truck that actually does it. The truck drivers were obviously in shock over it too.

I would like to know was this guy on drugs or trying to trying to kill himself, he was still alive and fine after hitting the signage and guard rail what in the world made him climb the embankment then jump off overpass unless he was trying to commit suicide unfortunately the selfage dumb @#$ could have killed others in the process, the passenger in the initial car is being for treated for shock thank god that is it. it could have been extremely tragic had they got killed because of him.
