Okay, letting your blind friend drive your all-terrain vehicle is stupid. No argument there. And no one should be happy when someone dies an unnecessarily violent death. But that's not what bothers me in this story from WTOV Channel 9:

Chief Deputy Allen Haueter said Hoyle was with two friends behind a home on Steubenville Pike when he asked one of his friends if he could ride his ATV.Did you read that? Anyways. What the hell is that "s" doing on the end of anyway? This is an NBC affiliate, not a high school television station.
But Haueter said Hoyle didn’t have a license to drive, and that he was considered legally blind.
Haueter told NEWS9 the men helped Hoyle onto the ATV anyways and warned him to go slow, but Hoyle didn't listen.
