    When this first hit the news, the first report from state troopers was that they are looking for a vehicle of interest. It may have caused or otherwise was involved in the collision.

    Reports now are not including that info.

    This hurts. Here are the victims not including the drivers. This is why I have zero tolerance for speeding truck drivers. Speed aggravates any situation you find yourself in.

    Ironically enough, this accident happened on the same road in the same area as the crash we saw on video with the trucker doing 82mph.

    No, I post these pics ON PURPOSE. To put faces with these names. These innocent children literally IN A CHURCH VAN were killed because some moron did something stupid. These are real people, not numbers in an article.

    Yeah....I see it every day. Soccer mom with a car load of kids yacking on the phone or texting and pulling out in front of me.
    Truckers 3 feet off someone's bumper at 70 mph in the rain and snow.
    Frankly, I couldn't stand the pain.

    Yep. No matter if its the soccer mom texting and driving or the trucker tailgating, one thing remains the same. These children are innocent victims.

    I think everyone should wait for the facts to come out before getting the firing squad lined up.

    Oh I don't know WHO screwed up and I never claimed I did. But SOMEONE did. This doesn't happen if everyone is lolly gagging along singing to the radio and counting the trees.
