My condolences to the family.
Hopefully someone learns from this terrible tragedy to prevent history from repeating itself.
I see so many parents trying to be their kids 'buddy', instead of being the parent and taking some heat temporarily from the kid when you don't grant their unreasonable request.
Now the son has to try and survive what he did. Plus what the the rest of his family has to overcome.
Hopefully some parents/guardians will make a wise decision and say no to the child, or the child says no to those who encourage them to learn to drive at a non-legal age.
Of course many of us drove a car before the legal age, but its high stakes gambling with lives and futures and eventually someone looses... like this family.
