    "Failed to negotiate the left turn" = driving too fast to make the turn.
  • @NoFace-ke9pc
    Are people children? Did we really need someone to tell us that sharp turns on roads are dangerous. Why arent they talking about HOW DANGEROUS IT IS TO HAVE 9 PEOPLE IN A SINGLE CAR !!!!
  • @A3Kr0n
    Normally there's a sign warning you of a curve. That's your hint.
  • @kd-123-kd
    Such a sad moment for this family. Prayers going out to them.

    " You have reached your destination", said Google
  • @tedflaig7546
    Think they would have more signage and reflective markers for such an obvious turn…
  • @BL-cj9lv
    No reflectors or sharp turn sign, no lights.....sad.....R.I.P. to all the families!!!!
  • Everybody who drives a vehicle use common sense we don't need some professional telling us that are you kidding me
  • @frozenwarning
    Maybe some signs warning that a sharp turn is coming up and to slow down would be more helpful than just a guardrail.
  • @cher280z
    Why on earth were 9 people in one car? It's so sad to hear there were kids in the car crash that died.
  • @terryowen6759
    Thats really sad, Rural roads have alot of twist and turns because of the crops and waterways, you have to drive at safe speeds
  • Poor souls. RIP.
  • @rod1147
    So are there any surviving relatives that plan on sueing the state for no adequate signage?
  • @sjb3460
    In the dark, I bet it is impossible to see. But it is not dark at 7:30pm do the driver should have seen it.
