There were a lot of people who said he was a reckless driver. It wasn't just the Gottis. Now, I don't know if the guy actually taunted them, but I do know he never fixed his car and he kept driving it. I, personally think that is a sick thing to do and it's even sicker if you take into consideration who the kid was. The guy had four months to leave the area. If it had been me, I would've been gone that very day.
As Vinny said, he did NOT repair his car which the Gotti's saw almost daily and many others involved besides the Gotti's and including ancillary police officers have claimed speed was a factor. Furthermore, if he knew the sun was in his eyes he should have been exceedingly vigilant. Additionally he knew kids played in the area and should have exercised extreme caution, especially with the sun in his eyes. Again, if your kids lived on that street wouldn't you hope drivers would slow down and be extra careful knowing kids are around? It's not as though Favara was a stranger just passing through, he lived there and knew children, including his own and the Gotti's played in the area.
