29 is way too young! According to some reports, this incident happened on a Wednesday morning rush hour, which is usually the busiest time of day. Anyway, data shows that most fatal car accidents occur between 7-9 am or 4-6 pm on weekdays... anyway, let's not dwell on it 
. 47 yrs old man almost made it tho 
. what's going on with our infrastructure? we need to start thinking about road safety ASAP 
. and poor family of the victim, no info yet 
. just when u think things can't get worse... 
just saw that news about Route 1 in Norwood 
. can't believe how quickly lives are changed in an instant 
. we need to keep a close eye out for each other, drive safely and take the time to actually see where we're going 
not texting or distracted driving, it's just not worth the risk 
. It's always so senseless when these things happen - one minute you're driving along, next thing you know, tragedy strikes. 
Anyway, fingers crossed that the investigation finds out what happened and that it's something we can learn from to prevent similar accidents in the future 
Can't believe how quickly the authorities were able to clear the roadways though - that's super fast thinking 
. Fingers crossed they find out what really happened and can prevent anything like this from happenin' again
