A truck driver who was participating in an amateur race at Lucerne Valley, California lost control and ended killing eight people from the crowd who presenced the race. Four people also ended up severly injured at hospitals and five other people had moderate injuries. It was then decided that he would not face charges as he was not considered responsible of the accident. Police stated the track and race was not safely organized.

What are the problems with the article?
There are many Bias involved with this article as there are opinions from some people like a police officer explaining it was not the driver's fault pointing out the unmarked track. "But as you can tell, there are no delineations to where the track begins and where the track ends at this point," (Joaquin Zubieta). There was also a Popular mechanics editor who said the people there always ran this kind of risks. This article is missing the opinions of the other side, the thoughts on the event form the relatives of the deceased and injured. They probably have a whole different opinion and we could see and analyze different perspectives further.
What is your opinion on the article?
This event is really tragic. I can't imagine how you go to this kind of events to have fun and then at the end of the night you end dead or injured. These people were looking to just enjoy the races but they probably didn't have enough precaution. I don't think it wasn't the driver's fault either. It was seen that the track limits were not clearly delineated. The people were also much to close to the track and got into the truck's way. He had no intetnions to kill him nor I think it was an imprudence by him, he just wanted to win the race.
