  • My deepest condolences go out to her family. I pray that you find peace in Jesus through this tragedy.

  • God bless her!

    Keep an eye on the ever growing number of car accident deaths involving a single person who was middle aged who veered off the road and crashed for no obvious reason. Not normal.

      • Nothing to do with COVID. Be less ignorant and anti-science.

      • You are missing the point. Would you be happy if I wrote “not elderly” instead? Because these accidents are predominately happening with young and middle aged ppl. You should be more worried with why it’s happening and less worried with my website comment section word selection. Maybe you do not notice this recent death pattern…and that’s okay.

  • Distracted by the phone. Interested if they do a forensic analysis of the cell data.

      • The WHO & WEF is trying to make that clot shot mandatory plus quarantines, , etc right now!

        My body, my choice.

        Global totalitarianism= prison planet.

        No to vax passport!

        • Nonsense. This is right wing conspiracy theory idiocy and inappropriate to tag onto a tragic story like this.

          Grow up!

  • Poor thing probably just fell asleep. I’d be curious if drugs or alcohol were factors.

    Another possibility is suicide. Not saying that’s the case here, but this exact thing has happened here before. Last time was about 15 years ago.

  • Tragic. I will say that since i got my covid shot, i’ve been run off the road 3 times by ignorant red necks.

  • The traffic on 75 is getting more & more congested, with most doing 80-90 mph, more semis, more distractions, more road rage, more swerving in & out of lanes. All it take is a split second to make a wrong choice. We’re all so much in a rush now a days. As much as I like to drive at 80, sometimes I wonder if we wouldn’t be better off going back to the old 55 mph speed limits. God bless all of the people mourning her passing.

  • She was my friend who had a bad habit or falling asleep at the wheel
