Officer Kevin Dave hit and killed Kandula with his police cruiser while the 23-year-old student was crossing the street in a marked crosswalk on Jan. 23, 2023.
Dave was driving 74 miles an hour without continuously running his siren while responding to a drug overdose call, on a street with a speed limit of 25 miles an hour.
Months later, footage was released of Seattle Police Officers Guild Vice President Daniel Auderer joking about Kandula’s death over the phone with SPOG President Mike Solan.
In that recording, Auderer can be heard laughing as he referred to Kandula as “a regular person,” going on to say, “Just write a check – $11,000, she was 26 anyway, she had limited value.”
This is good advise. I always make eye contact with drivers before stepping in front of there car
I used to work in a warehouse with a lot of forklifts and tuggers and while it’s known pedestrians always have the right of way, the question is whether they see you to yield
I’d hope that they would maintain the zone of safety at all times. They also should have spotters if possible.
