Default Darwinism ?

Not sure how to react to this one. two killed in a two car accident on I-80 near Des Moines. Drunk driver traveling east in the west bound lanes strikes an on coming car both killed. police say other cars were avoiding the oncoming car but this one didn't apply any brakes or swerve, turned out he was watching a DVD movie and didn't see the drunk coming. Watch out they're out there.

Darn it, I was always told, "you can't fix stupid" I have been mislead again. I just don't know what to believe anymore.
