    Pokemon Go tag isnt relevant.

    Why not if he admits that is what he was doing?

    Why not the mobile then?  If PG is enabling him to hit her, then the mobile is enabling him to play PG while driving.  Look how many car crashes are caused by people driving and using their mobile.  The mobile company should restrict that.

    LacedOpium: "So the question that begs to be asked is, if you are not interested in the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you playing an MMORPG?"

    At the very least blame this guy:

    The truck driver reportedly said: "I was playing Pokémon Go while driving, so I didn't really see what was in front of me."

    I mean, he needs to be put in prison to think about how stupid he was for a while. Not only for doing it, but for admitting it.

    Not really.

    If there were no cars, none of that would have happened in the first place.

    It is clear who is responsible here.
