Terrible tragedy. Hard to believe an accident of that magnitude is possible at that location.

Speed and/or alcohol likely factors at that hour. That location doesn't seem all that difficult to navigate otherwise. And, of course, the deceased passenger wasn't wearing a seatbelt.

We walk the dog down Tanglewood all the time, certainly not a difficult road to navigate.Bubba wrote:Speed and/or alcohol likely factors at that hour. That location doesn't seem all that difficult to navigate otherwise. And, of course, the deceased passenger wasn't wearing a seatbelt.
