twelve people in an suv ... how can stupid can they be?

maybe next week they can go boating w/ 25 people on a 20 ft boat w/ no life vests ... at night.

or maybe a nice vacation to yellowstone for a swim at the top of vernal falls so the kids can cool off.

I wasn't sure if you were being sarcastic or not, because both of those happened recently, the boat and the falls...doesn't anyone think....and if they did have so many people in the vehicle, drive very slowly and safely, precious cargo is on board.

Or, those dumb people could even go to Yosemite to visit Vernal Falls.

That vehicle was never made to hold that much weight. My suburban only has room for 9 adults, and I would never load it up as tight as that little thing was. Whoever was driving, and any other adult in that vehicle should be charged with vehicular manslaughter as well as felony child endangerment, and anything else they can think of.

Pure stupidity.

This is a sad story. Who was driving and I hope the person wasn't texting or talking on the phone. That would be even sadder.

I doubt that the driver was texting " the GMC Envoy was carrying too many passengers and lacked child safety seats, as required by law. Nine of the children were thrown from the vehicle as it rolled."
