    I'm sorry, I feel bad for the husband, but this is one instance where I won't be mourning the dead. I've just had it with stupidity like this occurring. Using a cell phone while using the should to pass a truck? Really? And people act like she is the victim here? To me life IS precious, so people who act in a way so contrary to the basic preservation of life do not deserve any sympathy or respect. The best thing that can be said here is that no one else was hurt, thankfully... and maybe this accident will cause folks to be a bit more cautious on the road now.

    Being foolish doesn't mean we should be happy about a death. A husband just lost his wife. Some kid(s) just lost thier mom.

    You're sick.

    Being foolish? Are you serious? How about being stupid? Those kids are better off without a mother who takes unnecessary risks. If she cared about her kid(s) she wouldn't have pulled the stupid stunt that she did.

    Strike one: Driving while talking on a cell phone.
    Strike two: Passing on the shoulder.
    Strike three: Speeding

    3 strikes and you're out!

    Yes she messed up. That a reason to dance on her grave? You've never done anything stupid in your life?

    You're sick.

    I have seen the Mods threaten to ban people for correcting grammar and spelling. I do hope they ban this individual. Completely uncalled for.
