Default A tragic reminder

This is a tragic reminder to always be aware of what's going on around you. ALWAYS watch your mirrors and have an escape route at every stop light.

Keep these families in your prayers.

Very tragic. Hard to avoid a garbage truck from behind at a stop even if you see it coming.

If we still lived there, my wife and I would have been on our bike and our son on his bike. They put the stop light there to save lives before that intersection got dangerous.
