Unbelievable news story. Very sad.

Yes, it's sad. What's even sadder is that 7 kids shouldn't have been in that car. I'm not saying the truck driver isn't to blame, but if the car wasn't there, the kids would still be alive.

With a speed limit of 60, I wonder if the car had brake lights.

I've wondered the same. I'd like to read the full story if it's ever published about this. I am sure they are having a pretty difficult time deciding who was actually in the car right now with what pieces they probably have left. 15 year old driving though...that sounds like the kids took one of the relative's cars out joy riding. Tragic.

I dunno.


If I would have had any joyriding days...cough...I think I'd have been taking them with my buds, not loading 6 of my sibs up for a cruise.

Sad thing, no matter what.
