It makes me sad that one could make a fatal mistake and caused themselves and love ones so much sorrow.

This episode will cause me to be extra careful while on a golf cart in TV.
That police officer must have worked only a few accidents, or been really lucky. In Lexington, we have had several dead people still wearing their seat belts, two were friends from college.
