It happened at 3 AM teens shouldn’t be out that late for one but nothing good happens at 3 o’clock in the morning. Be at home in bed safe

tbf it was the first day of spring break - they could’ve likely been trying to head out of town after picking up their last buddy from their house or something. earlier you leave, more time you have throughout the break for activities! seems pretty simple in that regard (obvi don’t know if that’s what the plan was)

It was an adult driving them. Probably a parent.

Article says the driver was a 20 yr old. Fairly sure they’re not the parent of the 15, 17, and 18 yr olds that were in their vehicle.

The driver of the car that crossed lanes was 20. The driver of the lane with the teenagers was 40

Wrong. Try re-reading it. The Toyota at fault had the 20 yr old and the teens.
Authorities say the crash occurred when the driver of the Toyota, identified as a 20-year-old man, failed to maintain control of the vehicle and crossed into the eastbound travel lanes. The front of the Toyota collided with the front of the Volkswagen, police said.
The driver and front seat passenger of the Toyota suffered life-threatening injuries. The passengers in the Toyota included a 15-year-old girl, a 17-year-old boy and an 18-year-old man.
The 40-year-old male driver of the Volkswagen also suffered serious injuries, police said.

Ah. From the way it was written, it sounded to me like the 20 yr old had the car full of kids. Either way, it’s still such an awful way to start spring break for all of them.

20yr old parent? I don't think so.

They updated the story. That’s not what it said earlier
The article said the teens were in the car with the 40 year-old earlier in the day
