Kids can crash in any car. A BMW would hopefully have more safety features.

Do you also say that guns don't kill people?

Speed kills. BMWs are performance cars that are meant to go fast. If this boy was known to speed, then it was irresponsible for the parents to let him drive a BMW.

It was a BMW that destroyed the family at Pyle a few years ago.

Parents giving high performance vehicles to inexperienced teenagers are profoundly reckless and I hope every single one of them are sued into oblivion for those accidents.

Alcohol involved?
In the parking lot?
On 395? Going to fast or too much merging and stuff to pay attention to.
On the Gaw parkway?

What? Where? How? Surely some witness said something. Or was it at 2am?

I absolutely agree if the parents were negligent they should be sued but it makes no sense to blame it on “a bmw.” Kids drive way too fast and kill themselves and others in all types of cars. (-a mom who drives an old Camry)

It was on SB 110 at Washington Blvd, 11:30 Saturday night. High speed.

Have you really not noticed that 95% of these accidents involve a BMW?

People kill people. The guns are the method used. Which is why they should be highly regulated.

Driving an old Camry isn't great either as it doesn't have all the safety features. You can easily make a wrong move and kill someone.

Not being snarky-do you really believe that is accurate? (Spoiler: it’s not!)

Which is my point-the driving is the lion’s share of the problem, not the type of car. Huge suv far bigger contributor to fatality than marginally faster sedan.

Perhaps BMWs don't fare well in crashes.

The problem is that BMWs drive too fast too easily and drivers do not realize that they are out of control.
