What Happened Here?
According to reports, the accident took place on a dark link road, with limited visibility and no street lighting. A 38 second video recorded from inside one of the vehicles gives a chilling account of the whole incident. The footage shows the car moving at high speed, and the camera is shaking nonstop while dashboard lights flicker in the background. After a few moments, bright headlights from an oncoming vehicle show up, right in front. In next to no time, the two SUVs collide with tremendous force. The impact was reportedly so severe that the Scorpio rolled over 7-8 times before finally coming to a stop. Then the video captures screams and scenes of chaos, as the occupants struggle in the aftermath of the crash.
Number Of Injuries and Death
Early reports point that the boys were filming for social media, and they were having a late night drive, when the crash occurred. Even so, the blend of speed, more rough road conditions and that poor visibility situation ended up being genuinely disastrous. The student who was driving, died at the scene, while his companions got serious injuries, and were hurried off for medical care. What started out like a light fun outing, quickly morphed into a heartbreaking tragedy, leaving families and close friends completely shattered. Authorities are expected to look deeper into the exact circumstances behind the incident, including whether careless driving had any part in that deadly collision.
