CDRW - when they hit it with the wingtip of course it wasn't in front of them.

They either followed the RJ, gave way to the RJ, or the RJ was sitting there the entire time the EVA 747 approached the impact point.

In broad daylight it's obvious that the RJ is not clear of the taxiway. Either the crew wasn't clearing their taxi path or they assumed they would clear the RJ's tail.
