It’s not often that teenagers get to see first-hand what could happen when they drive recklessly or are negligent.
Fortunately, the fatal rollover accident Lincolnview High School students viewed Friday afternoon in the school parking lot which also resulted in serious injuries and one student being life-flighted wasn’t real. But Middle Point Fire Chief Craig King said something similar definitely could happen if students are distracted, drink and drive, and take other risks while driving.
