They were married less than a year, this is their first child. Wife and kid are fine, physically. Wasn't my best friend, but he was part of our little group, we used to hang out together. I have no idea what I will tell the wife when I see her. I'm sorry will not cut it. :(

could say: 'bad driving costs lives, hmm....'

WTF? No wonder your user rating is 1.00. Your comment is even worse than Geekbabe's.

Good call. We should, out of mercy, kill all expectant parents without them expecting it. Lucky them.
