I like Bruce but he has to know absolutely that he is a pap target right now and it seems a bit negligent on his part to be out running errands on busy roads if he feels like he has to run from them or doesn't want his picture taken.

I don't understand. What's the worst that could have happened if he wasn't trying to outrun them? They take a picture of him inside the car? Or a picture walking into an establishment while running an errand? Report that he went to the gym or to a friends house? (This isn't even aimed directly at Bruce. Just to celebrities in general. I'm sure it gets really effing annoying being followed around, but it's not worth someone's life.)

I'm not sure about where he was but it has been either drizzling or raining in LA today. Makes for worse conditons and when you are driving reckless... I am so sorry for the person who died. God. PCH in Malibu

I'm sure it sucks to be in that position, but it only becomes a scary and dangerous traffic situation if people try to outrun or evade them. Just let them take your picture at Starbucks. That's not a tragedy. I have less sympathy for Kardashians because I've probably seen only 5% of the Kardashians shows and they all seem like reckless drivers. They've got cameras on the car with them, they are on the phone or chatting with each other and then they try to outrun paparazzi too...because even though they call the paparazzi all the time themselves, when they don't *want* to be photographed, then it's a big deal. I've seen a number of close calls on that show while they were driving their SUV's.

Wow, that's awful. If the accident was caused by Bruce rear-ending the person, then he's at fault. "Jenner family sources" have already told TMZ that he was being chased by paparazzi, so I guess that's where the blame is going to go. On the one hand, Bruce is particularly high profile right now so this would be the time when paparazzi is going to be following him. On the other hand, 80% of what comes from that family is self-serving lies, so I wonder if there were actually any paparazzi around at that particular moment. They be lying:

Oh my God, several hours after the crash a drunk driver drove through the barricades around the crash site and crashed into the debris. PCH sure is dangerous.

It was a multi-car pile-up and Bruce was third in the pile. The car in front of him (the one he sent into oncoming traffic) hadn't been able to stop in time either, so I guess it's sort of understandable. It sounds like they were all following each other too closely.

So he should hole up in his house until the paps are no longer interested?

They were definitely following, but hard to tell if chasing. It sounds like it may have been a typical accident where people follow too closely and forget how to drive in the rain. I live in a place that gets much more rain than Southern California, and I'm amazed at the way people will still ride my ass when there is a ton of standing water on the road.
TMZ is staying classy as ever by talking about how the female hormones Bruce may or may not be taking will make him think like a lady and turn him gay. Lord. First, who cares? Second, we don't even know who he is attracted to. Third, that's obviously not always true - Chaz Bono was attracted to ladies before he started taking male hormones (so it wasn't the hormones that made him "think like a man"), and I've heard of transgender people who become technically "gay" after they transition only because they were once attracted to the opposite gender, but they became the same gender after the transition.
