She won the Darwin award. Thankfully, no one else was killed, but their lives are also irreparably affected by her decision.

The lady here made a deadly error. Sad for her family and the other driver.

The Tacoma plowed into the Scion which was stopped on 495 in the express lanes. Was it stopped randomly or was there traffic? Why was it deemed unavoidable — even on freeway you have to be mindful of cars stopping ahead of you? Anyone understand better?

This reminds me of this crash in Ohio where the video has been making the rounds for months. I think it illustrates why some crashes on an interstate at normal speed can be unavoidable when someone stops in the middle of traffic for no good reason.
