Another Sad Crash

Probably not news to many here, but just saw it in the paper this morning. Two teens killed in a Camaro crash on Route 22. One of them graduated high school three weeks ago. Another sad example of how high speed and NJ highways don't go well together.

Great, a 1994 Chevrolet Camaro. Not the kind of publicity we want. Anyone know these boys?

At least they didn't take anyone with them.

So sad.

don't blame NJ highways, blame the morons behind the wheel of a car. I'm glad no one else died.

I saw the memorial on the side of the road. Didn't know what happened until I read the paper. This is maybe 2 min from my work so I pass by it everyday with people standing by it. Sad to hear.

speed doesn't kill, unless there are tremendous G-forces involved. it's the stopping.
