Most of the incident was captured on video from multiple angles. Rather than argue that he didn’t do it, Huston’s defense is arguing that he had the right to drive through the protestors because his traffic light was green.

In the videos shown in court, many of which haven’t been seen before, Huston’s truck appears to approach a car at the light. When the light turned green, the truck is seen swerving around the car and comes up to the protestors who are crossing, before stopping when it collided with a pedestrian.

It’s truly amazing what motorists think they can get away with.

    He drove around another car that was stopped and changed lanes instead of just turning down an unobstructed street…

    The only way he gets off is a racist/trumpet gets on the jury

      Hang on, yeah, why didn’t he just plow into the back of the other vehicle? That was blocking his right of way too!
