He was for sure intoxicated. So at best that's negligence. Who knows. Even now looking back on the post I see that it could have gone in other directions.

Surely it was cowardice, and selfishness. You say he failed to be a hero like his brother. This didn’t require heroism; it just required a (very) little bit of courage (dive under those dark but shallow waters) and some moral clarity (that it was his duty as the driver, as the one person present even if he’d been a mere bystander) to try to save her. Instead, he fled. And then lied about it. Trumpist.
