Accident, Bay Forrest Rd

[stardog770]

This is sad .... young people not thinking.You never know when you leave your house if you are going to get back safe. It"s just sad that anyone had to die, and so young! The roads have gotten so crazy, people in a hurry to go no where, takes the fun out of just taking a drive. Please slow down out there!

 

[PinkyDinkyDo]

Christina and Eddie were our neighbors and good friends of ours. Christina died at the scene and I believe Eddie is the driver as it was his truck. We just talked to them right before they left for Elms beach. Some of you may know Christina from Linda's Cafe as she has worked there for several years.

Please say prayers for Christina's sister to get through the next copules weeks.

I guess your friend wasnt smart enough not to get in a vehicle with a drunk driver?

If in fact Eddie was driving, it is very sad indeed. No they do not have any children and the other guy is his cousin, I forget his name. One of the others flown away is also a cousin and the othr just one of their freinds. Christina and Eddie are both 22 and a year younger than my daughter Stephanie.This morning I still can not believe wha has happened since we spoke with Eddie around 3:30 yesterday in front of his trailer and there was no indication that he had been drinking but then that was several hours before the accident.

I just worry about Christna's sister Norma and what she has to take care of. She lived with them amd is only 19. She was working and the police came down and picked her up last night.

For his sake, I hope he wasn't drinking or his problems are only the beginning. 2 counts of vehicluar manslaughter I would think would bring a long sentence.

Well, I'm sorry, but here is the latest news. I have always thought Norma is Christina's sister, but she is Eddie's sister and was not in the wreck nor was the one cousin that was believed to have been. Christina is in a deep coma with a 20% chance of recovery and it was her 17 year old sister Nadia that was killed. Not sure if the guy killed was the other cousin or Nidia's boyfriend. The two killed was in the back of the truck and yes they say Eddie was drunk.
We went down to look after taking with Norma and it looks like they was coming back and ran off the road, hit one tree and eitherbounce back into the road and ending up in a second tree. Not sure if the truck spun around but sure looks like it did for one to have been in the road and one in the woods. I have known Chrisitna and Norma for a little over 3 years now.

Too bad the drunk wasnt the one killed. But now he will pay for his bad choices he made.

If the friend that just called my husband about 20 minutes ago is right, Eddie died from his injuries at Surburan and Christina died also this morning`. That leave only one person and I am not sure which one as I can not find out which boy died at the scene.

The Accident Investigation went on well into the night. I heard the reconstruction team down there over the scanner marking out the scene. I had never heard them use the radio for this before. The Forensic Investigator as well as the Coroner were on scene as well. A local funeral home carried off the two bodies. I guess no autopsies(sp) are required.

 

[Debbie92454]

Jeff,
I went down there last night and they wouldn't let us near. Went back this morning and it doesn't look go from where the team put down paint. We are going over later to see the truck. It is at Willie's at the corner or 5 and Great Mills Road. We have gotten so much confusing information from different family members and what I posted about Eddie and Christina passing away may or may not be true, one member says yes another one says no. Have to just wat and see. I do know that Nadia is one of the deceased, but the young man may or may not have been her boyfriend. he was there with them. Let's just say that one of the guys drives a small black car and it is parked at Eddie and Christina's and I heard he was the one that died, but again do not know if he is Nadia's boyfriend or Eddie's cousin. I do believe he is the boyfriend.

I read what you posted about them. To be honest what I heard from the medics in the Helos did not make me believe that the victims were at serious risk of life. The Priority 1 had numerous cuts gashes on her head and body. She was a 40-42 year old Female, Hispanic. The Driver pretty much had the same types of injuries. He was Hispanic as well. I really don't remeber too much about the third flyout. But from what I could gather, at least at the time of the flyouts I did not think the flyouts had sustained life threatening injuries. But I am sure unseen injuries could have later complicated things. I hope not.

I was listening to most of this while out in the yard so I my information is coming from memory here and is not as accurate as it would have been if I were sitting at the pc & listening and taking notes.

There did seem to be a bit of confusion as to the priority of the patients. At first it was 1 Priority 1 and 2 Priority 2s. But when the helos called into the Hosptial they had reclassed the first Priority one as a Priority 2 which is a bit less severe. But the whole scenerio was confusing to all as so many peolple were there trying to help so information was coming from multiple sources.

Jeff,
From what I have been told, Weaton was the driver and the one that is still alive. Christina is 22 and Nacia is 17. They were the only two females in the truck. Eddie, Christina's boyfriend just bought the truck in PA and there is no insurance. my understanding is that Eddie's boss is gonna take up a collection to pay the funeral home and send the 4 young people back to Guatemala. As soon as I know something I will post more. Weaton is Nadia's boyfriend and Nadia died at the scene.

The speedometer was broken at 112 miles and hour. I have photo's of the truck but not sure how to download to the forum.

 

[Jbeckman]

So no insurance, alcohol and speed involved. Any registration of the vehicle at all, tags (legal or illegal), driver was licensed or unlicensed?

Who has passed, any info on seating positions?

How many passed?

It would be smart of you to stop posting any information about any of the "deceased" people, since you don't know who did actually die. It is inappropriate for you to post information that is incorrect.

All you are doing is starting rumors that are unsubstantiated.

The truth is that only Wheaton is still alive. Wheaton is Nadia's boyfriend and she died at the scene. Eddie and Christina passed away in route to the hospital. This has been verified by Eddie's sister and they are working with Eddie's boss to get money collected to send the four deceased back to Gutemala.

I also have pictures of the truck itself and the odometer broke at 112 miles an hour from what the tow truck driver has said.

the truck had Pa dealer tags and no insurance. That is all I know for now

 

[Inkpen]

Ok..to recap all this:
Five people in/on pick up truck being driven by a drunk Hispanic driver.
Truck NOT insured...
Several people in the bed of the pick up..
Four bodies gonna be sent back to where they came from...

Driver not killed....

So that means there were 5 people and all but the driver is dead.

The speedometer being locked at 112 is only valid in a head on accident.

Well...sad as it is...it is not surprising...drunk drivng does kill.
Wonder who is gonna be stuck with ALL the medical bills since there is no insurance.

They should have been sent back to Guatemala a long time ago. sounds to me like this guy should have never been driving in this country, or even IN this country in the first place!! I'm glad the driver died..sucks the ####### had to take people with him. I have NO sympathy for ignorant people!!

Well...that is fishy...have to have isnurance to drive in PA.
Wonder how he got away with that????????

If you drive a car in Pennsylvania, you are required by law to carry vehicle liability insurance, or what some officials refer to as "maintaining financial responsibility." This is not one of those laws you want to roll the dice on. Failure to conform could result in your license being suspended and, in the event of an accident, your financial health being decimated.

To maintain your status as a law-abiding vehicle owner, you must minimally carry the following insurance coverage for every registered vehicle you own:

$15,000 for injury or death of one person in an accident
$30,000 for injury or death of more than one person in an accident
$5,000 for damage to property of another person
Your insurance company will mail you an insurance identification card that will serve as your proof of coverage. You must carry this in your car at all times.

Repercussions for Not Being Insured
Failure to carry car insurance comes with dire consequences:

Getting slugged with a $300 fine.
A three-month driver's license suspension and a subsequent $50 reinstatement fee.
A suspended registration for three months and a subsequent $50 reinstatement fee.
Your vehicle, during your suspension, could be banned from being driven at all―by anyone.
Things to Remember
Getting stopped by a police officer is not the only way of being found guilty of failing to be insured. If you don't renew your insurance, your carrier is required to notify the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT). The agency will then send you a letter requesting your new insurance carrier's information. Failure to respond will cue PennDOT to suspend your driver's license.
If you bring your car to a vehicle inspection station without proof of insurance, it will not be inspected. The inspection station will then notify PennDOT, which will prompt a letter to you demanding insurance information. Failure to respond will result in a license suspension.
You will not be allowed to register your vehicle without proof of insurance.

The`drver is not dead....he needs to be killed!!

Pictures of truck

There are photos attached.

 

[Inkpen]

F-150 crashed into a tree. 5 Occupants.
2 Priority 4 (Deceased).
1 Priority 1. 2 Priority 2.
Drivier Intoxicated driving at high rate.
All Hispanic folks. Language barrier made figuring out the situation difficult for the medics. They were unsure if people were in the bed of the truck or in a rear seat.
Trooper 7 with 1 to Suburban. Trooper 2 with 2 for PG Shock Trauma.
Of the three flown the driver seems to have been the least injured.
The initial loadout was for 3 helos. US PARK POLICE (EAGLE 01) was cancelled as Trooper 2 carried 2 out.
EAGLE 01 now in Mechanicsville for an ATV accident.

Yet another reason why ENGLISH should be made official language.

How long have they been here in the US?
Can't learn the language?
Can't read drivers ed. manual that says riding in the open bed of a pickup is illegal?

All of this could have been prevented at so many places.....
Now people are dead because of a stupid drunk that ignored all the laws..and even sadder is the fact 4 people were just as stupid to go with him!!!

I agree with you but was told by towing company that police have determined there is no insurance.
