    Hmmmm....I wonder what caused that.

    Now I not saying she was TEXTING...but I find it disturbing the amount of parents that text with kids in the car.

    Something sounds rotten in the "Choo-Choo". Son of the boyfriend, other 2 children, custody hearing,,, sounds like trouble to me.

    Perhaps they are divorced and because of the accident he wants to take custody of his children.

    Possibly, however, history has shown, some folks can't live with that fact, and try and end it all, taking the kids with them. I'm sure the dirt will come out, she was on her phone seconds before the crash. Big mystery.

    I re-read that article and did not find any mention of a phone. Is that in a different article?

    She hit the semi at 70mph. I heard witnesses said she never touched the break. It was stopped traffic. I think it was probably a lack of situational awareness. Maybe phone too...

    I would say the three kids probably distracted her

    Pointless speculation until there is an official investigation.
