EPTI feel this quote is appropriate, especially with people saying that this happens everyday, so why should we care.
He was heroic in death, but this makes it no less tragic.

I'm really of the opinion that passenger vehicles should be further sub categorized on mass and had additional licensing restrictions placed on them. New drivers and/or bad drivers should not be allowed to pilot 4000-5500 pound vehicles for the same reason they should not be driving semi-trucks. If this 21 year old were driving a modest <3000 pound car there is a reasonable chance no one would have died that night. | ||

So much hate for the driver. I mean have you never texted while driving? glance at a hot girl for a moment? Shit happens. I think people really overlook that | ||

No eating, drinking, phone use, etc. Blows my mind that people seem to accept these things as perfectly normal and excusable so easily. Drives me nuts when my brother or sister mess with their ipods while driving. | ||

I'm really sad if this is going to get me banned, but if it will, it's the best ban ever: I hope that one day you will die in a car accident without taking an innocent person with you so that the world has one idiot less to worry about. | ||

I think there should be a mandatory road test every 5 years or so. I'd also like to add that some states could do well to strengthen their training courses, my GFs from Florida and once she told me about how much of a joke getting a drivers license down there you can start to understand why tragedies like this happen so often. | ||

It really makes me sad to see someone innocent die in such a fashion like this. What will immortalize his name in my memory, though, is that despite the situation, he still managed to swerve the car so he would take the hit and save his family. A very honorable move worth praise. | ||

But assuming that she is a half decent person she's going to suffer a lot on her conscience in addition to whatever punishment the state will give her. Really tragic story. This kind of shit happens all the time and I guess the only thing we can get out of it is a sober reminder to drive with caution. No cellphone, texting or drugs behind the wheel please; our vehicles are deathmobiles =/ | ||
