Petition for illegal alien who caused fatal crash receives over 2 million signatures
Harjinder Singh, an illegal alien truck driver who made an illegal U-turn that killed three people, was charged with vehicular homicide and three counts of manslaughter. A petition was launched urging that his case be re-evaluated. Singh was denied bond due to being an illegal alien and to being a high risk. Many people from India, living in the U.S. and elsewhere, are praising Singh and denigrating the crash victims.
From Fox News:
A petition urging Florida officials to show leniency toward Harjinder Singh, an illegal immigrant truck driver accused of causing a crash that killed three people, has garnered nearly 2.5 million signatures as of Sunday afternoon.
The petition — posted on the website Change.org and addressed to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis — calls for both DeSantis and the Florida Board of Executive Clemency to re-examine the case against the 28-year-old. Singh faces three counts of vehicular homicide and three counts of manslaughter in connection with the deadly Aug. 12 crash.
Harjinder Singh, 28, an illegal immigrant, was operating a commercial semi-truck with a trailer on the Florida Turnpike in Fort Pierce when he allegedly attempted a U-turn in an unauthorized area. The trailer jackknifed and collided with a minivan, killing all three of its passengers, according to officials.
Singh was arrested in Stockton, California, on Aug. 16 and later extradited to Florida. Investigators determined that he and his passenger, Harneet Singh, fled to Sacramento the day after the crash, according to the U.S. Marshals Service.
On Saturday, a Florida judge denied bond to Singh, ruling that he is an unauthorized alien and a substantial flight risk. St. Lucie County Judge Lauren Sweet also found probable cause for all six charges against Singh and classified them as forcible felonies under Florida law.
“This was a tragic accident — not a deliberate act,” the petition states. “While accountability matters, the severity of the charges against him does not align with the circumstances of the incident.”
If convicted, the petition requests that Singh receive a “proportionate and reasonable” sentence, that parole eligibility be granted after part of his sentence is served and that alternatives to incarceration — like counseling or community service — be considered.

I signed the petition to have the signers of Singh’s petition deported.
The reasons for my signing that petition is that those foreigners have values, ethics, and morals that are incompatible with the US. Deport ’em.

Absolutely! Innocent people’s lives were lost because this man decided to turn the truck he was driving around on the highway??What fool does that? Does he have legitimate drivers licenses? Can he even read English? Road signs? He wasn’t alone. The other person with him (father, brother, son, wife) should also be held culpable. Riding ‘Shotgun’ assumes responsibility! Otherwise, ride a bus! What a tragic loss of life. Put this man away otherwise he may continue his reckless behavior.
Moreover, it is a divided highway with a center median, and he made his U-turn from the outside lane. In the process, his trailer blocked both lanes of traffic. The van was being driven at freeway speed when this POS initiated the turn directly in front of his victims. The van impacted the front third of his trailer. The video in the cab shows he reacted like he could give a shit less that he just killed three people. These turd-world low IQ illegals have no business driving big rigs anywhere on our roads.
I suspect he also made that left turn from the right lane, and I doubt he used his turn signal. Definitely reckless and wanton misconduct.
That is why I said “from the outside lane.” The divided highway has two lanes in each direction. In the video, one can see the rear of the trailer is still partially blocking the outside, right lane, at the impact of the death vehicle.
“That is why I said “from the outside lane.””
True, but I said it better.
“Why is it better?” you ask?
Because! (he explained patiently).
That’s an argument winner every time!
He’s from India, so I thought– maybe the rules of the road are different over there? Then I looked it up. According to the Google AI bot (sometimes useful) in India, a driver making a U turn must wait until the road is clear of all passing traffic. And a U turn like the one he took would actually be illegal over there.

Ol Bakchodreturns obviously grew up in the generation of not getting busted in the fucking mouth for smarting off. That’s the thing with social media: people will say whatever they want online but will clam up real damn quick when it’s time to say shit out loud
You described a crap load of people who post on the internet these days. Too many of the older folks have forgotten what could happen when the mouth is used the wrong way, and too many of the younger people grew up with the internet and not with interacting with other people… Not having as much risk as the previous generations experienced when smarting off with the mouth.
To Editor: Correction: ‘to’ to ‘too’! There, fixed it for ya!
Is there a comment that was deleted? Hack Stone is more confused than a disbarred attorney trying to read a fuel gauge on a plane that is rapidly approach the ground 200 yards short of Sister’s Eagle Airport.
Am I missing something here?
Spend about an hour watching truck crash videos from India and it will all become clear to you. This is no big deal over there.
A a culture difference where morality is concerned. Well, I think it’s time for them to learn it’s a very big deal over here.

*Ah,
“When in Rome….”
180k people die in India every year in road accidents. Non-fatal accidents are greatly under-reported.
From one perspective:
India: 1.5 B people / 180k = .012% fatality rate
US 330M people/ 40K = .012% fatality rate
The rates are practically the same.
Then you find that only 8% of households in India own a car.
For sake of argument we will say that 15% of the population drives a four wheeled vehicle (probably lower).
The rate jumps to .08% or 6.6 times higher than the US.
Population vastly under estimated.
Of the time I spent in the Navy, the only time I feared for my life was a taxi ride in Naples, Italy. As bad as the driving is here in states, its magnified ten fold elsewhere. The aggressiveness, the the GTFOMW mentality, and the lack of safety concerns boggles the mind. The worst countries in my opinion based what I’ve seen on YouTube is Russia, and India. Its a goddamn Thunderdome out there and I worked in NYC for 7 years.
Similar experience in Rome in 2015. Never thought of a stop sign as a voluntary thing before. Brakes were just for a casual nuance. Turn signals might give away your position and intent.
Try going down the road in Korea or even worse, the Middle East!
Saudi hiways and byways….
The Autobahn in Germany 1968.
Stay the hell out of the left lane…
My father was stationed there ’66-’69. Never had a problem in the Autobahn. Just remember the left lane is a passing lane, and you have no problems.
My father got adventurous when we were headed to Chiemsee during Prague spring. He was doing about 90 adn had already pulled into the right lane, when a Mercedes passed us doing well over a 100.
Some places now have a speed limit on the Autobahn.
I made the mistake of riding a Naples Taxi in ’72. Never again. It was like being in a demolition derby.
Honey? On your way home will you pick up some milk?
Those look like Afghan “Jingle Trucks”!
Another reason I love America!
Wait, they fled to California after the accident in Florida? Isn’t that another felony?
When they were obviously (to them) the subject of a criminal investigation? Probably.
No, the law doesn’t work that way.
For Florida or anywhere?
Anywhere in the US. I know what is on the TV and movies about the police telling you not to leave town, this isn’t real life.
Every state has a unique code. However, as a civil right the police anywhere can’t detain you for more than 48 hours without presenting a case to a judge. This would include any kind travel restriction, which would also normally be issued by a judge as part of a bond hearing. The judge might also force you to surrender your passports, put a spending limit on your accounts and lots of other stuff that otherwise would be considered a violation of your rights.
If you are suspect in a crime and you run away the police might detain or arrest you, but again limited to 48 hours before you must have a hearing. The 48 hours is a hard time too. I’ve lost track of the number of times I arrested people on a Friday night and on Sunday afternoon (my day off) I’m sitting in a judge’s chambers (or in some cases on a conference call). I did one conference call while out a restaurant on my anniversary dinner. Sometimes the job follows you home.
Hmmmm, the more you know. Thanks.
Still, Mr. Singh fleeing to California literally the next day is scummy.
Seems that way. Trying to stay a step ahead of ICE agents with nets.
When Ice catches up, Singh will be singh ing a different tune.
Zing!
Well, on behalf of the three tragically departed, I have a tree…anyone have a rope!
I still have access that fine historically correct picket line rope made of Russian hemp. Our reenactor Civil War cavalry unit was run by a couple of authenticity nazi’s, so our picket line and individual picket pin ropes had to be real hemp and not that nasty, coarse Manilla rope.
I say tie him to 4 pickups pointed different directions with Indian drivers and announce there is 1 H1B Visa to the person who gets there first. Drive carefully.
It just confirms he is a flight risk for bond consideration.
As to his charges, they should remain as long as his victims stay dead. Same for his prison sentence.
I second the motion…or in his case, the lack of motion!
Apparently, there are around 150,000 commercial drivers from India in the US. How many illegals?
And why are we importing drivers? Don’t tell me Americans would not do that job. That’s BS.
Yep. I was a CDL yard hostler for Target at their yard in Pueblo from 2021-2024. Many outside drivers from smaller companies were foreign born and barely spoke any English. Mostly of the Latin persuasion, but we did occasionally get a Slav or an Indian. We often had to help these guys find what they were looking for or they would wander the yard forever. I knew that what happened in Florida would eventually happen. My little brother even got clipped by one of these drivers when he was in his car and had the right of way (he was fine).
Why is this happening? Driving commercially is a good-paying job. There is no reason to import drivers. It doesn’t make sense.
It makes sense if you are a “not risk adverse” trucking company that has a shady insurance company and tries to undercut the market.
In my brother’s accident, he had to call the guy’s insurance company. They said, “We’ll pay you a settlement for the accident, but we still think the accident was your fault.”
Me: Um, excuse me?! The responding officer to the accident didn’t think it was my brother’s fault!
I hope that insurance company goes under.
Practically everywhere, the officer that does the accident report doesn’t determine fault.
The officer will probably note where a traffic law was broken (such as DUI or failure to yield) and might even write a prima facie citation or even arrest one or more drivers but from a civil standpoint this is just more evidence and not proof of anything. Often times during a traffic collision more than one driver could have taken steps to avoid a collision but failed to do so.
“Fault” is a civil term and police are for criminal matters. Civil lawyers and judges determine who was likely at fault and to what extent. If the insurance company settled it was cheaper than fighting it in court, no matter who was at fault. The guy was just being a jack wagon. Most insurance adjusters are jaded aholes after dealing with their 18th bogus claim of the day.
Ok. Makes sense. I guess a lot of people throw around legal terms without knowing what they mean, what they entail, and who is responsible for them. I’m no exception.
You beat Hack to the punch. These companies that hire “immigrant drivers” with questionable residency paperwork and driving credentials know that they are hiring substandard drivers, but they’re willing to roll the dice. Much like drunk driving, it’s usually not a problem until there is a collision (these are no accidents, they are inevitabilities), they just close shop and come back under a new name.
Yep, called it! He worked for White Hawk Carriers, Incorporated. The owner of White Hawk was previously listed as the owner of White Star Trucking, Incorporated. Navneet Huar, the owner of White Hawk/White Star reinvents himself more often than a Vice President of a proud but humble woman owned business.

It gets better.

It pays OK after you have a couple years experience. Entry level drivers get very low pay.
Do they pay better now than they used to? And never, EVER, drive for a company that pays percentage. They may pay 30% of the load, but they rarely tell you what the load pays and empty miles are just that. 30% of 0 is still 0.
Before CDL’s, we had what were called classified and un classified Chaufers licences (commercial trucks) which ranged from 1-3. DMV had a guy sitting at a table and you gave him your picture, he put an oval piece of plastic over the pic and cut around it and then it got pasted to your paper licence. Everytime Brink’s got trucks with heavier bodies, a set number of us drivers got into our small bus and went to the DMV test site and took the test. I remember the last test I took on the 4 on the floor truck, I almost aced the test but got gigged when I was shifting gears while making a turn otherwise the test went Jake. the older/newer trucks had manual trainies.3 axle ones had the 15 gears with the road ranger on it. Speed shifting was great if you knew had to work it.The 1-3 licences were the same ones that got used with the new CDL’ that came out.
I used to work for Brink’s as an armored car guard, but only after they bought out Dunbar Armored (thats why you’ll sometimes still see Brink’s trucks driving around with the old Dunbar red and black paint color scheme). I left because I didn’t like their security policies (i.e. It also didn’t help that one of our number was held and robbed at gun point doing a one-manned route and another in our region got held up too on another one-man shortly before I left.).
I deleted part of my comment because of OPSEC. Even if it was 7 years ago. Long story short: didn’t feel safe doing the job anymore.
I started work there in 1970-2007 which was United States trucking which did rigging and armored car services and then we merged with Brink’s after a couple of years and UST just stuck with there Rigging and transportation work. We used 3 man crews until the industry was de regulated and we saw companies working with 2 man crews and the original NYC armored truck companies were Brink’s, Wells Fargo and Cross Island armored car where all 3 were in the same union. We lost a number of custermers due to out bidding. I was in ground and Global services and I always worked with 2 other persons untill I retired. I saw a red Dunbar/Brink’s truck down here in florida once or twice.
Once I learned to speed shift or float the gears, I never touched the clutch except for starting out, stop and go traffic or backing up. In Illinois, and probably elsewhere, if you want say, a school bus license, the equipment you test in has to be the same equipment you want to drive. As in, it has to be yellow, has to be the same size and passenger count. It doesn’t matter if you have experience pulling a tanker, doubles, triples, have hazmet endorsement, unless its yellow, you’re SOL.
I had the Haz-Mat endorsement because we had a customer that was shipping gold in containers with some sort of acid which leaked out inside the truck and sent 2 crew members to the hospital. I also had the Tanker endorsement on my Class B CDL. Haz-Mat required a test on renewals but Tanker didn’t. I have a regular drivers Licence after I moved to Florida. And prior licence is in the system.
I saw the claim on X that the victim’s minivan had a Kamala Harris 2024 and an “illegals are people” bumper sticker.
I sent my AI Companion to find the source online, but she could not find it, so it remains unsubstantiated.
I haven’t seen a picture with a resolution high enough to zoom in on the rear bumper of the minivan.
Yesterday I saw claims on the Internet that US was #1 in Education in 1979 in the world. So much for the internet.
But that is true, right?
Not so much.
May have been true in 1979. Department of Education hadn’t really had a chance to work its magic yet.
Well no, but we can’t really say they have made anything better either. Every year it seems we slide down another notch or two. There is more going here than DEI failures.
If you guessed immigration is part of the problem you would be correct. Kids who are ESL typically perform much worse on standardized tests, especially if they just got picked up off a life raft in the Atlantic last month. This tends to skew the results because of the high number of immigrants.
We can’t allow these immigrant yutes to fail, imagine the stigma! They’d be ridiculed! Better to pass them through school and life. After all, we’re a nation of immigrants.
You forgot the sarc/ tag. But for us dickweeds, we know it is implied.
Ok.
We’ll follow part of these dot injuns petition, but they may not like it (as if I care)
No jail time, but immediate deporting.
BRING UP THE TREBUCHET!
(oh, and track down all the dot injins that signed this petition….see how many are illegals. I LOVE it when the bad guys “out” themselves)
That petition was started by the “ASSHOLES of Punjabi” or something like that. We had these curry eaters in all the time at a truck shop. Cabs stunk to high heaven and one even cut a hole in the floor board and was pissing through it. The shop manager refused to work on his truck, guy was calling him all kinds of stuff we didnt understand.
I worked at a company where the dot Indians wanted to lease a truck on at, but they also wanted a company driver to teach 3, yes 3!!!, how to drive it. The driver recruiter said yeah, no. For how big a road tractor is, there really isn’t much room in them for 1 let alone 4.
I had to do a mediation for a lawsuit between two Punjabis. They brought both their families, so I had to sit in a windowless conference room with about 10 or eleven of them for three hours. I kept calling for bathroom breaks about every hour so I could get some trash air.
I once tried to check into a motel that was run by dot Indians. The BO was worse than the homeless. Luckily, they were full up. The only worse smell is body decomp.
Interesting side note that appears true from what I’ve been able to find. Seems the petition was started by a person in Australia and many if not most of the signers are not resident in the US. The accusation is the petition originator is a tool of the Indian government intentionally fomenting (continuing?) a campaign of maligning Sikhs.
As someone who daily risks traveling an interstate near an intermodal facility, I concur with the warnings about the flip-flop wearing drivers. My stretch of road is under construction, two narrowed lanes, no shoulder, and jersey walls and k-rails on both sides. Can’t count how many times, literally in a single day, I am hanging back or quickly scooting past (on the left, of course) one of these “truckers” apparently incapable of keeping it in their lane.
A local social media group is up to something like 14 weeks running where there hasn’t been at least one accident on one stretch of this interstate. Yes, I avoid that singular stretch, adding 10-15 minutes average to my commute. But that beats the hours, days, or weeks of time I would lose if one of them got me. That is, if I lived through the experience.
Woah, I am really surprised. Next you are going to be telling us that his Gofundme legal defense fund is a little bit crooked.
Well, for those people who signed the petition without even being in the United States, I move that the signers be put on a “Do Not Admit” list and kept from entering the country.
This^. Ditto.
IMO it’s time for a hymn:
FUCK HIM.
FUCK all who signed his petition.
FUCK his employer.
FUCK all those who support him.
(and the chorus echos…)
FUCK heeem
FUCK heeem
FUCK, FUCK heeeem
FUCK heeem….
This is why I don’t like people. Life in Alligator Alcatraz for that guy, and his brother. The company he worked for should be sold, and the money go to the families of the victims.
Second the motion!
The company probably already liquidated their assets. The family of those killed will have as much luck getting money from the trucking company as Bank of America and Tragero Properties did getting what Psul of The Ballsack owed them.
By the way, what is/was the name of the company that owned the truck involved? Willing to bet a years worth of Red Hat Software commissions that they probably have a history of violations and lawsuits.
According to one account, that “Trucking Company” was headquartered in a HOUSE.
Did that house have a mailbox? Inquiring minds want to know.
Yes. And we want to know whether the mailbox door is missing.
Judge: “in accordance with the will of the people, I reevaluated the case. Thanks to their work, I identified seven additional charges. We’ve updated the case accordingly.”
The people: “Did I do that?”
Normal people: “sweet!”
Meanwhile a gaggle of liberal useful idiots are “protesting’ for the “Maryland Man” another illegal alien, but this time they’re talking about deporting him to Uganda instead of his homeland!
Chris Plante was discussing Maryland Man this morning on his show.
“You can’t send him to Uganda, he does not speak the language.”
“They speak English in Uganda. Let him not speak English there instead of not speaking English here.”
“Re-evaluated” is code for “dismissed because we want it to be”.
ANY PERSON in this country who did what this maroon did would be facing the same charges, and be treated in the same manner. If it’s the proper course for someone like ME, it’s the proper course for this idiot.
Collect all the signatures you want, doesn’t mean shit. He’s cooked.
Good riddance. Let the fucker rot for 45 years.
45 years, then immediate deportation.
And let his name be forgotten.
Did someone tell them that petitions are not how criminal cases are tried in America?
Especially because he is charged in Florida and not Commiefornia.
List of security threats and/or illegal aliens.
Earlier today, Hack Stone received a call inquiring whether he was involved in an accident and did not yet receive his constipation. Of course Hack told the robot lady that he was indeed involved in an accident and has not yet receive his constipation. Transferred to “Mark’ who asked about Hack’s accident.
Wait for it, you know it’s gonna get good…
Hack: I was driving on the Florida Turnpike when some illegal alien from India driving a tractor trailer tried to make a U-Turn from the right shoulder.”
It was at that point that he hung up. No constipation for Hack today.
When a TT jack knifes it is usually because of traveling too fast for conditions. Wet or snowy icy etc. This was intentionally suddenly blocking the traveled lanes with no regard for other motorists.
My first trailer trucking job was hauling
bulk milk. It paid a lower for the industry wage because it was agricultural. It still beat my former job as a carpenter by a country mile. I had a lot of fun on that job.
Immediately after being nailed by the milk truck, he was run over by a truck hauling Orea Cookies coming from the other direction.
And couldn’t enjoy either.
Milk is heavy.
Let him go!
Preferably from 30,000 feet. HANO.
Put some bounce sheets in his pockets.
And a safety vest so as to warn other a/c in the area
in case he doesn’t have an ADS-B transponder.
maybe a couple of whistles on his ankles.
2.5M signatures on the petition. What they didn’t say was that they ALL live on his hometown street in New Deli!
For just $2.00 a day you can give this poor, indigent worker a nice home to…
Unrelated: Seems some Republicans are against Trump when it comes to penalizing flag desecration. My take is that while it’s the right of a POS protester to burn the flag, a lot of problems in our country comes from low respect for our country, it’s symbols, and what they represent. Being able to burn the flag doesn’t help with that and many western countries (which are democratic) prohibit desecration of their flags.
https://www.foxnews.com/media/trumps-flag-burning-order-draws-rare-fire-from-conservatives
It doesn’t actually penalize burning a US flag, it penalizes burning the US flag to incite violence. Still, a very fine line on top of a very slippery slope of first amendment rights violations. If you truly want to incite violence, burn a pride or rainbow flag.
I might have less of a problem with the “burning the US flag is a constitutional right” canard if I was extended the same courtesy with pride and rainbow flags.
How about we don’t burn anything to be assholes standard?
You got my vote.
Or how about burning a Koran and an ISIS flag?
A possible hate crime in the UK!
smh
Don’t care much for the feelings of terror groups that already hate me and my country to the extent that negotiation is impossible and violence is necessary.
No “possible” about it.
“A man who burned a copy of the Quran outside the Turkish consulate in London has been found guilty of a religiously aggravated public order offence.”
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce9v4e0z9r8o
Let’s go at it from a different direction.. instead of banning flag burning, make it legal for anyone to beat the ass of a person burning the flag..
Instant karma at it’s best..
I was taught that proper disposal of the American flag
was to burn it in a ceremonious manner with due respect.
So we’ll have a ceremonial ass beating beginning with the words “with all due respect”…
To do it right, you must first separate the blue field from the stripes, then cut each stripe loose, THEN burn it..
I wish that our TAH Commenter Hondo would come back on and talk about the TT’S situation.
Yeah, it’s been far too long since we’ve heard from Hondo
Reevaluated for what? There’s video from inside the cab. Whatever his intention, it’s clear he was acting deliberately but showing poor judgement.
