The two things that come to mind:
1. Let go of the fact that this was a tragic accident, and that a young lady lost her life. Take a look at the damage to the car and the marks and damage to the building. All of that happened inside of probably no more than a half of a second. Think about the amount of energy that was present for that short time. It’s incredible what happens to a couple of thousand pounds of kinetic energy when unleashed from that speed. Though it is a truly sad story. I find the crash itself rather fascinating.

2. I would think that while the investigation was under way, and those pictures were taken. The area would be closed to the public. Thus - I would assume the pictures were take by someone doing the investigation or perhaps the fire crew. (Anyone find it odd that the body is still in the car as it is being loaded onto the truck. Maybe that‘s just before the loading and they‘re about to remove it.)
Anyway - My question is this - How do pictures like that get out into the public so soon? The accident was earlier this month. And - Is there any course the family can take regarding family privacy or something? I’d sure hate to be mourning the tragic loss of a family member while those types of pictures are covering the globe.

Also - Would this be posted on the net if she was in the Civic and hit a 911 prior to the building? The Civic can go 100+mph and pass/hit a 911 doing 70. A civic can get away from an 18 year old after misjudging the clearance when trying to pass. Speed kills - No matter what you’re driving.
