They both wound up into trees? Geez. Can only pray for the best at this point.

There has been several fatal accidents over the years on that section of the parkway and its always a vehicle into a tree. The road has curves in it as you are headed out toward Rt. 5., its right before the little shopping center with Nicks of Clinton in it.

The other place in St Charles that is insane is the merge from the pkwy onto Smallwood. People always lose it on that turn and end up fishtailing into the median.

I know EXACTLY where your talking about now. Gotta slow down, especially with wet roads.

You have got to slow down on that road. I have run many bad MVA's on it. People think because it's a two lane divided road they can go way above the speed limit. My prayers also go out to the families involved.
