    Andrea LeFan (16) killed when a vehicle tried to pass her car in a no pass zone

    http://www.mydeathspace.com/article/2007/11/17/Andrea_LeFan_(16)_was_killed_when_another_vehicle_ tried_to_pass_her_in_a_no_passing_zone

    Andrea LeFan (16) was killed when she tried to pass another vehicle in a no passing zone

    The MDS Editor needs to fix this headline. It was not Andrea's fault. Read the article. She was in her lane and was killed by the vehicle trying to pass coming towards her.

    Please fix this.

    You need to take the dashes out of your subject line and take off the bit at the beginning.  Your subject doesn't need to be the whole link.  Just the description.  ;)

    Still not right according to the article. She was the oncoming car the illegal passer hit.

    State police say a Pontiac Firebird was passing another car in a no passing zone and failed to move back into its lane before colliding with an oncoming Chevy Cavalier.

    Two people in the Firebird were pronounced dead at the scene. They were identified as 23-year-old Bobby J. Taylor Junior of Smithland, the driver, and 17-year-old Shonda L. McFarland of Salem.

    The driver of the Cavalier, 16-year-old Andrea Lefan of Fredonia, Kentucky, was airlifted to an Evansville hospital where she later died.

    Being a learner driver and having to stick to my 80km/h speed limit I often get cars that overtake me in dangerous places. Are people really in THAT much of a rush to get places? Gosh when are people going to start thinking about the possible consequences of these actions?

    RIP Andrea

    Yea, but you don't really have the space to get your car up to a deadly speed here. :lol:

    And I will knock you down to get to a train if it's about to pull away.....
    But I ain't going into the wrong lane and chance running into another car head on.

    Yea, I had a friend get a gun pulled on him by a couple of guidos once.
    They pulled over after a 'bad merge' and everything.
    Next thing he knows he has a gun in his face.

    Come to think of it...he was in Jersey. :lol:

    [/quote]dude...this whole AREA (NJ, NY, PA) does not know how to merge. Or more realistically, they KNOW how to merge, yet are way too stubborn to do it properly. I bet traffic accidents would decrease by 50% if people merged properly.&nbsp;

    Just as you have to trust your life to the honesty, skill and judgment of strangers, so must they, when they drive, put their lives in your hands on advance faith alone.

    Think of this when you drive. Each car you meet and safely pass represents one more human being who has staked his life on your respect for the law and on your skill and judgment.

    This was in with the stuff my daughter got when she got her permit yesterday. Along with a book called &quot;You're the Coach! A Guide for Parents of New Drivers&quot; which recommends you have them stop the car before you smack then up side the head for doing something stupid.

    j/k but it's still good advice.&nbsp;

    RIP Andrea&nbsp; Even if there is time to react to someone coming right at you, you just don't know how they are going to react and may end up hitting head on no matter which way you go.

    When these assholes hit Ms. Lefan, I wonder what was the driver was thinking.
    I mean, he decided to go into that lane, and saw another car coming head on.
    I just wonder what the last thing that went through his head was.

    Depends on how fast it was. Did he pull out to pass and wham, or pull out to pass and almost made it but just not quite or what I wonder.

    There was a kid here who hit a couple head on a few years ago because he wasn't paying attention, suddenly realized a car in front of him was stopped waiting to turn left and instead of swerving to the shoulder of the road to miss them he swerved into the oncoming lane.&nbsp;

    Killed them, he lived but in that case probably didn't have much time to think about anything. I hope he's done a lot of thinking since.

    Technically wouldn't his head go through the windshield? Unless he had airbags.
