Yes it is. It is very easy to point a finger and state the obvious . .that the driver was acting
irresponsibly and foolishly. Youth is often smitten with the notion that they are invincible ... It only happens to someone else, etc.
As a parent (and a survivor of at least equal foolishness) I can think of little worse than receiving a phone call that informed me one of my children paid for their foolish act with their life.

Yes, I feel terrible for the parents...
My wife and I do not have kids, but I do have a niece that I love dearly. I can only image that there could be no worse pain than to have to bury your own child.

I totally agree
I just had a similar incident happen to a really good friend two months ago. He was the passenger and another friend was the driver, they weren't driving like idiots, just driving home. When your a kid you don't expect these things to happen to you until it actually happens to you or someone close to you, then you start to realize that you are not invincible. The saddest part is it fades...some of my friends are starting to drive like idiots again.
