The driver of the other car was breathilized at the road side, but because he wasn’t in shape to go back to the station to puff into the machine, blood tests were taken to _confirm_. The Explorer with the kids inside was going 75ish, following the flow of traffic. The guy that clipped them, speed is unknown but logic would tell you he’s in the passing lanes so it might be more. That doesn’t matter though, he could have been doing the same speed as the kids were, and still clipped them. The damage is substantial because explorers at highway speed don’t usually respond well to a pit maneuver. It rolled a bunch of times down the highway. Most of the pictures you see are after FD cut the roof and doors off btw. Side note, my supervisor was at the school last night. He said the teen that survived was escorted last night to attend the vigil and was helped to the field. It was very emotional at that point he said this morning. The football and baseball team ran over and hugged him and showed their support. Unfortunately the fucking news scumbags also rushed him alongside the friends and family there and were pressuring them all for comments. The police should NEVER have allowed press anywhere near that thing. I understand silently televising it for support and awareness, but its no place or time to get comments. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/northway-crash-kills-2-injures-2/265653)._
