It’s a good reminder that we have to drive defensively on the road, no matter what time. My heart goes out to their families and friends.

I wonder because this is a terrible tragedy and the reporting is also rather poor. It seems simply to be a regurgitation of the police report and has rather few facts.

Reporting was definitely poor. It said a 22 year old man was driving. Any way praying for families.

No matter what death resulted may they RIP. I have no facts but generally we find people drive way too fast. Speed limit is 70mph sometimes other motorists pass us if they we were driving at a much slower speed than 70.

When I clicked on the post, a pop-up appeared asking me to subscribe to the Gazette. I believe The Gazette is looking to get us to subscribe by posting news tidbits, whether they relate to TV or not.
Sad news, but I'm not interested in The Gazette.

We lost our 42 year old daughter Stephanie on 12/08/20. What you said is very true.

You are confused.
It is posted in the "Gazette News" subforum of TOTV.

I agree.

I will also say that some times, no matter how well you are prepared, nor how defensively you drive, the situation changes.

You stop or slow before a fog bank, you get hit from behind, or drive into a fog bank and hit someone else, you pull off, you get hit. It's no win all around. The same goes for misty freezes that ice up the road. All the sudden, you're in it.
