Thinning the herd...

A 22-year-old woman was fatally hit by a car in Dallas in June when she stopped on the busy LBJ Freeway to take pictures of an accident scene. She was apparently just an overly curious rubbernecker. [Dallas Morning News, 6-15-08] (Taken from Chuck Shepherd's News of the Weird located here: http://www.msnbc.msn.c​om/id/20469972/).

Yeah, I know. It was a public roadway, so she had a right to take the pictures.

That stinks.

Another argument for the advantages of long, fast glass......or for people to mind their own d4mn business and stay in their car when they are on a busy freeway.

Nice to know that natural selection is alive and well...

I'll guess the vehicle that hit her had right of way over her.

"Pedestrians have da' right of way, unless dey in da' way."
