S**t is getting weird.

It's actually not weird at all. Police reports for auto accidents are commonly filled with errors. It's why they aren't admissible in court.

Not that weird. Police accident reports are often just made up so that the officer can hurry up and get out of there asap.

That's a HUGE "error". Especially after the officer interviewed both parties. I don't buy that. Also I wouldn't think the officer would be in hurry to get out of there with potential mistakes, when it involves a big local celebrity almost dying.

So dramatic

the vehicle I saw posted was a CL300, that's not an SUV

what do you make of this Af ? lol

Okay call me overdramatic or overnanalytical but I'm starting to get very concerned at how much this is starting to smell.

This story went from completely silent for 11 days to about 25 different versions in 3 days—each one worse than the last.

I really hope this doesn't get even worse or become something bigger like are we going to wake up tomorrow and find out that alcohol was involved? Or that the girl WAS hurt? Or there were more parties and they were ALL seriously hurt?

I just don't like this at all. The more time passes by the worse this story gets and the more it contradicts the last iteration.

Calm down bro, Wrecks happen everyday and as long as no one dies nobody gives a crap whose fault it is.

The worse it gets? It went from he was seriously injured and might miss the whole season…To he is concussed and bruised. No one was seriously hurt and thats what should matter.

It's 2026 and there's cams everywhere, it was in the middle of the day and not in bum f**kville.

can we for once not make something a conspiracy? Why does everyone in the world get hard ons over that s**t?

FVCK CELL PHONES

Some potential not good reasons for this weirdness..

Kyle initially lied to the officer, but felt the need to be more truthful with the media after the story blew up..

Or Kyle was honest with the officer, but the officer tried to help Kyle Shanahan. But now Kyle is admitting guilt in the front of the media, bringing attention to the department/throwing the officer under the bus.

Or it was a clerical error which happens. There was no reason for anyone to lie when no one was arrested for anything.

quit trying to make something out of nothing.

I guess you finally feel comfortable posting in this thread again.

If this were some other person you didn't worship(Kyle), you would be bashing him like crazy for being careless and almost killing another person on the road.

WE ALL F**KING KNOW IF YOU DROP YOUR PHONE WHILE ARRIVING TO AN INTERSECTION YOU DON'T F**KING TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE F**KING ROAD TO LOOK FOR IT!!!!

I don't believe that s**t. But some folks just continue to get the benefit of the doubt, even when a story is suspect.

Some of you are trying to make Kyle out to be Henry Ruggs.

Kyle Shanahan took fault for the car accident on Alma St. near downtown Palo Alto, which is a 4-lane way without a median (only a double yellow line):

"I was driving. I was going 20 mph. I was not on my phone but I dropped my phone and it was stuck in my seat. I took my eyes…

He probably corrected the story today because he didn't like it being reported that the other driver was at fault, but the whole thing is a personal matter that shouldn't be in the news.

Or he doesn't remember and the his lawyer informed him recently due to discovering some video / evidence .

From Mercedes' website..

"Explore the GLC 300 SUV"

I mean I can understand if it were some crossover or weird vehicles like that old BMW I forget what it's called....Ok fine the description was a mistake.. but who's perceived as at fault? When one is admitting it? That's a HUGE mistake.

My dude… I am badly hoping this is the end of the story and nothing worse comes out.

I'm just saying in terms of optics the pattern of this story could not be worse. Silence for 11 days, and then we're told Shanny is fine/nobody else was hurt/other driver was at fault, then we're told Shanny was on his phone, and now Shanny himself is saying "yes I was on my phone, and yes it was actually my fault, the report was wrong."

This just looks onerous that something much worse is hiding. That's all I'm saying. I certainly don't WANT our coach to get into trouble (or more importantly, be a driving alcoholic who committed manslaughter) but when we've already been lied to about one important detail…

Bad enough last season was a disaster from player's injuries, now this year starting off with the coach??

GLC 300 is the small MB SUV.

Kudos to Kyle for coming clean.

Provided (I hope that) she is not permanently injured, all will be fine with Shanny's insurance carrier footing the bill.

*Ehm* Correction, good sir. WE ALL F**KING KNOW YOU SHOULDN'T BE ON YOUR F**KING PHONE WHILE DRIVING A CAR IN THE FIRST F**KING PLACE. BECAUSE THAT IS F**KING DUMB.

Yes of course. Just taking the viewpoint of that exact moment. It's an even worse f**kup.

Sounds like Kyle is talking to some of the conspiracy theorists here.

So, you're thinking he was drunk and the PA cops and Stanford hospital hid that ? What else could it be to make it weird ?
