My heart goes out to the families of all 3 girls involved in this a horrible tragedy. Accidents happen every day and only the man upstairs know the reason why. And to those cruel people who want to point blame and make exuces. The speed limit has only 45 in the area of the accident, there is NO cell service, and the sheriff and state patrol travel st rt 93 constantly. I've traveled 93 every day for the last 9 yrs. I see law enforcement every day on the way to and from work. Yes, I've encountered many rude drivers on 93 but you have those anywhere you go. People need to stop being cruel and trying to start drama. It doesn't change a thing, only causes more hurt for the families involved.

My wife makes a daily commute from Athens to Ashland, traveling on Rt.93. She commonly encounter's other driver's traveling well below the speed limit. Her complaint is that when she tries to pass, the idiot that she is trying to pass speeds up to the point that she must reach speeds in excess of 80mph to get around them. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE? If you are one of those people that feel you need to speed up to keep other's from passing, may you burn in hell. You are endangering the life of someone that I would die and kill for.
