I want to know who was driving that van, they deserve everything coming for them driving that erratically
How do you know the van driver was driving in that manner you described, were you there to witness that action? No damn sympathy at all for the van driver or the other victims.
How do you know who was driving erratically?
praying that all folks are ok, i live up the hill, so many folks pass in that area and thats not safe at all, just take your time and you could save a life
I usually travel that road once a week and the road surface is really crappy at the county line (as you can see on the PG side, of course). Obviously, one of them crossed the center line but, as usual, we’ll never know what happened…
they do it all the time
Lord bless them
I lived in Brandywine area for years. Driving on Brandywine Rd and a lot of others Roads are two lanes, with trees almost on the street, there is no room for error. It’s really sad, so many people loose their lives because the roads are to small, deer running out in the road and over hung trees. Why hasn’t something been done to correct the problem? The citizens should demand better.
People just need to slow down, look for deer and drive courteously.
If PG County would take care of these roads, things like this wouldn’t happen. PG County is the worst!!
The road didn’t cause them to hit head on
It’s not the roads or the deer. Drivers just need to slow down, look for deer and drive with curtsey.
Hope everyone comes out of this alive. I will NEVER buy a Chrysler Pacifica/Town & Country those cars crumple up like news papers
Every single car made after the 80s crumbles like newspapers
