How anyone could have survived this crash is beyond incomprehensible

So the other occupants of the vehicle fled the scene? Leave the driver to burn at the wheel? Seems to me like the vehicle must have been stolen. As for the other occupants....glad to see you cared so much for your 'friend' you left behind to die. SMH

Judge gives 4-year sentence to Quebec driver who was texting before fatal crashA Quebec man convicted of killing another driver and injuring two teenagers while texting at the wheel has been sentenced to four years in prison. Seems like a short sentence for manslaughter. But smuggle in guns from US and get 3. Something is wrong with that picture. That’s all? Shame.

Mandatory truck driver training begins in SaskatchewanStarting today, new commercial truck drivers will have to undergo mandatory training in Saskatchewan where an inexperienced driver blew through a stop sign last April, killing 16 members of a hockey team. This should have been something that has always been a requirement. I like the numbers that are being required, too, no one week of being in a classroom before being given a AZ license. 👏👏 Good idea but why take so long to implement?

Driver charged: Saskatchewan RCMP say motorcyclist reached speed of 260 km/hRCMP in Saskatchewan have charged a motorcyclist who they say reached a speed of 260 km/h as he tried to evade officers from several police services. I can't believe he found a highway in Saskatchewan in good enough condition to drive that fast on, let alone on a motorcycle. I have a 4x4 and the roads are poor! For us old people it's 161 mpr. Mine boggling. That's what the track is for. It's all good fun until there's an incident. The rider should have his license revoked.

StatsCentre: Kane the best driver of offence in the NHLWhen coaches talk about a guy who drives a line they’re usually talking about a centre, but there are exceptions. Mike Kelly explains why Blackhawks winger Patrick Kane is the best driver of offence in the NHL. McDavid it’s not close. He is constantly setting up his teammates, aside from Draisital they just can’t finish. Has Mike Kelly ever seen that guy in Edmonton play hockey. For some reason I can’t seem to remember his name. David Connor or something like that.
