Sadly the 17 year old driver died in front of the high school he attended. Witness reported the car going at a high rate of speed before the collision. Remarkably, the four passengers in the vehicle, although injured, survived the impact.

While covering this story, another fatal accident happened a few blocks away when a another teen dirver in a pickup. turned into the path of a motorcycle killing the rider. That video will also be posted.

As a paramedic I keep asking myself when will the young drivers ever learn that hi speed plus no seatbelt gets you killed? This is one more case of it. Rather then bad talk the person that posted this why not start talking about not getting yourself killed next? Did you ever think that just maybe VX2100DV is trying to do just that. Really makes me sick seeing so so many young killed for something as easy as putting a seatbelt. Wise up ! the life you save could be yours.

Thank you I have more teen accidents to post. One of which a BMW convertible hits a VW at 100 mph splitting the beamer in two. The front half overturns and skids another 500 feet with the girls still strapped in the seats. There is no top/roof left when it comes to a stop.

the tenn driver that died was that person that put the ems truck.

[VX2100DV]

No. That is a passenger. The driver had already been removed and died on the way to the hospital.

You need to shut the fuck up. You have absolutely no room to talk about the dead like that, especially Chris Gaskin. He was loved by so many people and actually respected life. He crashed because a cat ran out in front of his car, and he swerved. So what does that tell you? I am sure your sorry ass would have just kept on going. Go to hell, douchebag.

[swtpnaisinger]

I'm amazed at how ridiculous some of these comments can get. Telling people that their friend is stupid and jumping to conclusions is unproductive, unnecessary, and unwanted. If you lived a completely clean and sinless life, then you can say whatever the heck you'd like. But please believe, EVERY SINGLE HUMAN BEING has made a mistake in their life that they wish they could take back. Chris happened to have a lapse of judgement that night, but one mistake does not define a person.

Chris was the homie n anyone sayin he deserved that is fuccn nutz n hypocritical. Stay behind your computer come to the tac or the sway talking that nonsense see what happens. He was super funny and down to earth. Let him r.i.p. we miss ya chris

[Hondalady15]

at just us the young when everybody is all equal. We all make mistakes and do the same things. The media is making it hard for anyboy and everybody to get ahead these days criticizing every move one makes. Dont down grade somebody for a deth one falls upon yet it be a mistake or not. Yeah its going to be hard your going to have your wide open opinion about it but ont act like you or anybody else is gods heaven sent angel cause your not and either am I..

[Hondalady15]

I heard this all the way from my house. I grew up with chris miss him never to be forgotten. My prayers go out to the family and those in the car. This can happen to any body in any different situation yes it can be controlled but yet it can be un-controlled. To the wise yea wear your seat belts drive the speed limits be cautious.,. But we are all young and relentless at some point in our life and yet its not only the young that are capable of this. The elder are as well so why point fingers at
