Actually, family has been told what happened in the accident. abd the only victim is the one killed. the man's negligence caused the accident and now a family has lost a loved one. If he would have been drinking would you still say he is a victim no you wouldn't. In my eyes there is no difference. He made a bad dicision to pick up a cell phone off the floor of his van while driving..... still negligent!!!!

How heartless are you people? Both involved in the crash are victims. It is a tragedy that the woman was killed, it is also a tragedy that the other driver will forever have to live with this in his heart. As for the stories about why the accident occurred - if it hasn't been released yet, don't go mouthing off about it.

Dennis is correct - I know the victims sister personally and this is exactly what occurred, however I am not sure about the company van aspect. The driver of the van is still in critical condition at the hospital however is expected to recover however a family has lost a sister, mother, aunt, grandmother and friend due to a cell phone being involved. Very sad!
