drunk probably.
My guess, too.
Speed was a factor which caused loss of control. Heard the entire accident then rushed down to help. It’s horrific that so many have lost their lives in the same small stretch of roadway.
Seems to have a lot of accidents by Linda Vista.
Yeah alot of stupid people that drive way to fast there. Ooh well. They’ll never learn till something happens.
Would you say oh well if it was your family member?
Don’t be rude Alma. Someone DIED. You don’t even know if it was because they were speeding. Have some class and keep your rude comment to yourself

A lot of “holier than thou” comments. No one knows what made them crash, but it must’ve been some “stupid” person speeding or drinking. And even if it was, apparently none of you have ever made bad choices in your life? I already know the answer…you have and you’ve just been luckier than this person. How about some empathy for a life lost??
Thank you.
Exactly! “Stupid” is not a capital crime.
I saw this crash last night. It’s very sad. When you all make your comments on here remember that this is someone’s loved one. Whether this was someone speeding or drunk it’s very sad that this was a life gone. We are all human and make mistakes. We all don’t know what happened so people need to stop assuming. What if this was your brother or father or cousin or friend? People need to stop being so judge mental.
Fidencio Conchas look this what happened last night
Sad. Again so many lives lost on our road Sierra Highway
Wow, not much empathy in a lot of these comments. What about the family of this person? I know them, i knew him. Sad, extremely sad. Shame on all of you who believe you are so perfect. I pray for his family.

I cant believe the ignorant and arrogant comments from some of you!!..but I thank those of you for your empathy! This man was my cousin!! He was a good man and leaves his 6yr old daughter behind without a father!! He worked hard at everything he did! What if he fell asleep at the wheel?? You ever consider that?? Regardless of what happened NOT one of you are perfect!! Therefore you have NO right to pass judgement on him or anyone else!! What if it was YOUR brother or son or cousin or nephew??? Im disgusted by the pure arrogance and lack of empathy for a lost life! I pray that GOD gives you all wisdom because Im reading some pretty ignorant comments!
Oho no.. Prayers for the families and friends.
It may or may not turn out that the person that died was at fault in some way, but it really says a lot about how judgmental we are that the first response people share is not expressions of sympathy at the loss of life but condemnation of the deceased’s actions as though they somehow deserved to die. My thoughts to the family during what will be a most difficult time.
Very sad in every way.. I was reading yesterday how prince died of that accidental overdose and this is a drug the rich and famous can get. Why did one lady say.. Can Kim Kardashian get her hands in some of that drug…. Im thinking what has Kim k ever done to this lady or anyone else that you wish death on her.. People are so scorn and bitter and really bed to think before they express every passing thought…
What the hell do Prince and Kim K have to do with anything? Please find a better use of your time Mrs. Bell.
Prayers to the family

My parents live up Sierra hwy. the speeds and passing are crazy. Still feel terrible anyone lost their life. Seems to be a monthly occurrence up there.
I can’t believe how horribly rude some of you are this is someone in my family and he has a mother that is in so much pain so are his sisters people make mistakes and we don’t know why he was speeding. Would you want people saying stuff about your loves one while your grieving how cold and callous lets try to help people not hurt them. I pray that you people never have this happen to your family !
