You have been told multiple times by numerous people to “SLOW IT DOWN” before you kill yourself or someone else!!!!
Everyone speeds on this highway. It is just a matter of time before someone is killed or seriously injured due to the wreckless driving along that road.
Well ignore the first comment that was very rude i understand your concern but to beat someone else down over something like that is not kool. And by the way i am just glad that everyone is ok and to let you know anoymous driver i am praying for ya
I lived next door to the teenage driver for several years, and I now live in Windy Hills. When this wreck occurred the road was wet. (I drove up behind them seconds after it happened) I am not saying that it wasn’t his fault, but I can say that he never drove in an unsafe manner on Lakewood Estates Road, and that the slickness may have been a contributing factor. There are very few teenagers that haven’t driven too fast, or ridden too close, at some point. I agree that people do drive way too fast on Old Hwy 13, but I think comments here should be written in a mature manner. People vent behind fake names too much.
Hopefully this taught him a lesson about following too closely, but he isn’t a bad kid.
