Victoria McGrath was killed on Sunday along with Priscilla Perez Torres, her roommate at Northeastern University in Boston. The two were on a personal trip and were not studying abroad, the university said.[/quote] Well shit. Never good to see someone who survived a tragedy get killed in another one.
She was killed by a rich retard who rented a ferrari and crashed it speeding. Stupid people are more dangerous than terrorists it would seem.

Really weird going to facepunch and seeing a post about someone you knew dying in a car crash. I knew her roommate (not close by any means but we were neighbors). It's been pretty tragic since they heard about it by getting a phone call from Dubai saying she passed away pretty late at night here
They squeezed four people in that car, I wonder if that threw off the handling or if the idiot just had no idea how to drive a car like that.

Sounds like something out of a Final Destination film.

I hope everything gets better over time.
[QUOTE=MaximLaHaxim;49906634]It was DUI.[/QUOTE] That doesn't mean anything. Lots of people drive under the influence and never crash. Lots of people who are NOT under the influence do manage to crash anyways. I was just curious about whether this guy was getting behind the wheel of a Ferrari for the first time or whether he did this sort of thing often. He might have been used to being able to handle the car a certain way, but that's only when it's just him or him and one passenger. If you plop four people in there, things change.
[QUOTE=cecilbdemodded;49906499]They squeezed four people in that car, I wonder if that threw off the handling or if the idiot just had no idea how to drive a car like that.[/QUOTE] I don't think in a car with 50/50 weight distribution that people sitting right in the middle would affect handling, and more importantly even if it did, it wouldn't make any difference at sane speeds. The driver was a drunken moron, there's no more explanation necessary.
[QUOTE=Scot;49905535]She was killed by a rich retard who rented a ferrari and crashed it speeding. Stupid people are more dangerous than terrorists it would seem.[/QUOTE] Well, generally statistically you're about 5 times more likely to be killed by incompetence than malice.
[QUOTE=cecilbdemodded;49906987]That doesn't mean anything. Lots of people drive under the influence and never crash. Lots of people who are NOT under the influence do manage to crash anyways.[/QUOTE] Uh, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that being drunk while driving had a hell of a lot more to do with the crash than two extra people effecting the handling did.

My brother and I attended school with her in Paris and he was at Northeastern with her.
