This is so sad and I feel for them all. Was it fog related? Sometime, regardless how careful you drive, unexpected things can happen. My prayers for all involved and their families. Please be careful and obey all the rules and laws. Thank you to all our highway patrol and all our policeman and women. You do a great job !
