Chivalrous.

Who?
Perhaps we will get an interview where he says he would do it again under similar circumstances.
“Why do they always teach us that it's easy and evil to do what we want and that we need discipline to restrain ourselves? It's the hardest thing in the world--to do what we want. And it takes the greatest kind of courage. I mean, what we really want.”
Lance is the most courageous of us all!
LOL. There's gotta be a couple of Lance fan boys still not believing these things about their hero.
The "hit and run" is more of a "didn't call the cops". I think I would do the same thing. I had no idea that if you hit another vehicle you must call the police. I thought leaving a note or notifying the owner of the vehicle of the accident was enough... Lances' girlfriend spoke to the owner of the cars when it happened. How is that a hit and run?
I can't believe you guys are accusing him of drunk driving! He never failed a sobriety test! /sarc off
They might have let him off the hook on the hit and run due to lack of knowledge since she contacted the owner...if that's all it was. However, once it was clear there was alcohol and lies about who was driving involved, the police are going to throw the book at them.
I read an article in Esquire about him a while ago. The author really not-so-subtly made it look like he was drinking to deal with his fall from grace. So this doesn't surprise me, that he's probably driving drunk.
Article: (quite long)

...everyone else drinks and drives and would leave the scene of an accident and blame their GF if they were in his position.

Not so sure about that. An Aspen 'society' member with lawyers makes it good odds he pleas minor offenses and that's it.
Powerful people don't get busted. Lance is the embodiment of that.
Funny stuff in the comments:

Lance doped during his comeback.
Has he ever admitted to this?
That's a "NO", correct?
Why WOULDN'T he lie about this? He's a liar. Lying is what liars DO.
He's even got a girlfriend who will also lie for him. He must've been drunk, otherwise surely it would've been less hassle to just admit he bumped someone's car and deal with it quietly. He had to hide and it's sad that his girl was willing to throw her moral compass away too. Very silly.
Lance fits the definition of a sociopath. He is what he is...

I don't know which statement is more ridiculous. That powerful people don't get busted or that Lance is a powerful person.
If one of you were as famous as Lance, and your girlfriend agreed to take the fall, wouldn't you do it? I sure as hell would. Why attract tons of media attention and douchebags on message boards for something so trivial when you could just avoid it

That's because you are a douchebag.

I read that article and had the same takeaway. Sad.
And while, we're at it, hey, USADA, let the guy swim in masters swim meets for f's sake.

Better than a liar
