Tragic accident that should never have happened. My heart mourns for my fellow coworker at UPS, as well as the for the loss of fellow SCV neighbors.
Beautifully said David.
My prayers our with their families ?
My heart is broken for them and there families ?
RIP all concerned prayers to families – hope they catch the fools who were racing!
They did arrest one!
No no no!
Wow ?
?? Absolutely tragic!
So heartbreaking. Praying for these families!
My heart aches for the families. ❤️So sick and tired of irresponsible drivers.
I send my heart felt warmth and tears to the families of the scv students and the ups driver
My condolences to the families of the three Angels lost in this senseless tragedy ?????? And my prayers are with the two kids in critical condition ❤️❤️❤️❤️
AWFUL!!!
So sad…

Horrible

All involved in the racing group should face charges.
This Fast and Furious style street racing needs to stop.
Racing will never stop yes its tragic that this accident happend but why should al street track or eny kind of racers suffer because of other peoples mistakes its just like saying all pitbulls should b killed just cause one came out agressive judgeeveryone individially
Because it’s illegal and putting the lives of others at risk.
If you want to race go to one of the sanctioned weekend events, they happen all over the country.
Don’t put my family at risk for your rush.
First of all, this has NOTHING to do with the pit bull issue. It’s more like comparing it to judging all dog fighters. All these idiots are putting lives at risk. A nice place they like to race is on Rinaldi on the west side of the 405. I almost got killed there. Start 911ing this stuff.
Michele Miller Jase Yo while he didnt really explain what he meant properly, what luis is trying to say is hating people who tune their car and race safely should not be categorized as the issue here.
Look, my first car was a 68 Torino GT and I have zero issues with the car culture. Auto Zone has received more of my dollars over the years than I’d care to count.
The illegal street racing sect is a whole separate issue. Anyone who participates in these races should face stiff charges. Anyone who knew of this race and did nothing is partially responsible and should also face charges.
I race my Cobra safely on tracks…or used to Jonathan. But street racing is an entirely different thing.

So sad
Prayers to the families ???
So tragic… May they rest in piece. And may the ones at fault be persecuted to the full extent of the law. They not only took the lives of innocent people, but have destroyed so many others. To the wreck less drivers: I can’t imagine how much pain you have inflicted…..May God have mercy on your souls?
Agree 100%.
I hope the best for the families! I can only imagine the what they are going through!
Very Tragic…
Love and prayers………

I have no words. ?

My heart breaks for the families and friends of these victims. Such a senseless tragedy.
Luis Soliz, this is not the time or forum for this type of debate/conversation. Hold these families in your hearts and prayers.
Condolences to the families????
I was drivig at 5 fwy north when I see the sign alert cause the big accident very sad for the persons Who lose their leves
just more teens killed cause they dont watch out for semis and they were probally texting shame
Wth?? The teens killed were innocents. The semi came over the center divider on a freeway — smh at your insensitive and uninformed comment.
Did you even read the article, the UPS truck went over the divider and hit them. Wow, read the article, witnesses saw the accident.
Some people are idiots. Ya cant fix stupid. Dirrhea of the mouth ya got huh.
how sad bo ho
They were completely innocent in this horrible tragedy! Such nice people gone too soon. Read the article before you assume so quickly.
Just more foot-in-mouth false Christians here to cast their stones. I cannot believe someone who claims to know the love of God would blame someone’s dead, innocent, child for this terrible tragedy. It makes me sick. You give others a bad name. May these angels find peace, and their families never find this cruel comment, especially in this time of complete devastation for them.
Just to make something clear. I was not referring to these tragedies. I was responding to some idiots comment
:(

So sad ?
Tracy Bryant, do you know if they were texting? Does that insensitive comment help these families that have endured the worst possible loss a human being can ever have? No. What is the purpose of your incredibly insensitive comment ? Think about what you are posting!
They died from the people racing.
And the ups truck crashed into them from. The two people racing who lived.
Shame on you!
So very sorry and saddened over the loss of these 2 kids. Our sympathy to the friends and families.
Julia Pascual ?

Anthony McBridee
So sad ! I couldn’t imagine
Dude I went to middle school with Brian. So devastating!
Bridget Janae Ochoa he went to helmers also
You might want to update your article. The UPS driver didn’t swerve to avoid the racers. He was hit by one of them which caused his truck to hit the median and flip/cross over it.
So sad
Andrew Sohikian
STOP street racing!!!
Sad
Frank Connie Munoz
