"investigators have not officially determined the cause of the accident."

That's because they can't say it was "being ****ing retarded" due to the politically correct police.

Umm, that story is a few days old. He Tweeted from the top of a hill that he had wanted to hike for a few years, finally did it and tweeted pictures from the top of it. I've been following this story since monday and no other source said anything other than what I said. Check out TMZ, they have more details than what you posted.

I don't believe the guy was texting in his car, your story is off. Its actually sad the guy finally accomplished something he had wanted to do for a long time, was excited and tweeted from the top of the hill and died on his way home.

The OP a douche and very misinformed.

OP said he died while tweeting. Which was not the case. I'll grab some more links if you dont care for tmz.

The tweet in question was from the top of a hill with a picture to go.

Minutes before the crash, Ryan Tweeted, "After 25 years of driving by, I finally hiked to the top of the giant sand dune on the pch west of Malibu.

ya, I guess by "OP" you mean CNN.com

Plastic surgeon was texting in car before fatal crash
Youve obviously have personal feelings about this story for some reason, and if you think you know more to the story than everyone else does thats fine but stop calling slow04wrx a douche just for reporting it the same way EVERY major news wire is reporting it.

Other sources say different, if someone proves he sent a message within a minute before the accident i'd belive it, and i'd eat my words. Whose to say his dog didn't get in the way?

The only place I read the CNN version was on CNN, which doesn't really have high priority on a semi celebrity. I'd trust tmz over cnn in celebrity news because thats their main focus, its why they released the story around an hour after it happened, not days after. You don't have to agree with my logic there, but i'll defintely trust tmz over cnn on this one.

Sure, the guy could have texted in his car before the crash, its not necesarily what caused the crash. I'll text at stoplights, maybe thats when he texted. Maybe he just ****ed up and drove off.

That concludes my rant for today. Thank you.
