    :biggrin_25513:This was the worst wreck that I have seen. Has anyone heard bout this wreck? I seen the wreck happen I was just wandering if anyone has heard any news. It was a werner driver on the cell phone not paying any attention and rear ended a woman in a 4-dr subaru I guess, car looked like a pop can. He sandwiched her b/w him and another truck, she died at the scene. I was wandering if anyone else was hurt, how old the woman was, and what they do with Mr Werner driver.

    Its really bad when someone loses their life because of ignorance...the Werner driver should not have been so involved with his cell phone or the accident would have never happened...this is an absolute shame and I am sure the family of that woman will seek for justice...I were if that were my family member.....I never talk on the cell while I a driving...in my personal vehicle or working...this is horrible...

    Not all phones are bluetooth capable. Usually the free ones are limited on features.
