Here's the article if you want to read it:
A driver speeding on a road outside Williams lost control of his car and slammed into a tree, killing five people, police said Tuesday. A teenage girl survived despite being thrown more than 50 feet from the vehicle.
Four of the five killed died at the scene of Monday's accident about 1½ miles south of town, where the wreckage of the compact sedan was wrapped around a tree, police said. The fifth died at the airport in Williams while waiting to be airlifted.
“The mood is kind of somber around here,” Williams police Chief Herman Nixon said. “It's a big tragedy around here, especially as small a community as we are.”
The lone survivor, 16-year-old Jennifer Miller of Williams, was thrown about 50 to 75 feet from the car and landed in a wooded area, Nixon said. She was in stable condition Tuesday at Flagstaff Medical Center.
"She walked away with minor injuries." Nixon said. "How she survived I can't tell you."
Killed were the driver, Matthew Dent, 20, and passengers Elena Rivera, 15, Prescott McDaniel, 16, and Jesse Buchmoyer, 21, all of Williams. Also killed was Matthew Small, 18, of Claremont, Calif., whose family were part-time residents of this town of 3,500 just south of the Grand Canyon.
Nixon said the driver was traveling “in great excess” of the 40 mph speed limit in the area. None of the passengers are thought to have been wearing seat belts.
There was no indication that alcohol was involved, Nixon said, but routine toxicology tests will be conducted. The Arizona Department of Public Safety has taken over the accident investigation.
Counselors were sent to the junior high and high school in Williams and will remain through the week, Nixon said.
Nixon said he knows the families of four of the victims, and personally notified all the families.
“Going into a home and telling parents or guardians that their loved one was in an accident and won't be coming home - it's always a hard thing to do,” Nixon said.

People can change over time, he was still young..but that is sad..I remember a best friend die at 8 years old, we used to hang out all the time. he died on a motercycle behind the back of a driver that was a teenager, they ran into a closed fence that was usually open at the time, he fell head first into the fence the driver only got a broken arm, sad to hear since it was the drivers fault that he died.. Oh yea he didnt die right away I think he died a day later from brain injuires.

My name is Scott, nice to meet you, but I never knew anyone named Matt that had anything bad happen to them, so I guess that is good.

My brother is named Matt. When he was 13 he was riding a quad and got hit broadside by a guy on a motorcycle going about 60. He broke 8 bones in 13 places.
But other then that he's lived a fairly charmed life, so I guess it all balances out.

atleast you can say your buddy died on 9/11. Keep it vague enough and you might be able to get some patriotic sympathy.... its worth atleast a few beers.

but I never knew anyone named Matt that had anything bad happen to them
Only Matt I ever knew drove through a power pole in front of my house and didn't get a scratch on him. Bottom of the pole was rotten but still...
He was killed in another wreck a month or so later.
I've lost two best friends to wrecks. I've lost other people I know to wrecks but not one and only best friends like these. One was the third person I ever tripped with and happened a day before we were to embark on a camping/tripping weekend. His new wife died with him upside down in a creek. They left behind a newborn. Result of a hydroplane on a bridge.
Another best friend and business partner was killed a few years ago in a head on collision with a drunk driver. The drunk had been in and out of prison all of his life and was a piece of shit. My friend and partner was his complete opposite in life. I never replaced him in my work and closed the business a couple of years later. I just lost interest in it after that. I had already before he cam along and renewed my interest. He truly was not replaceable as a work partner or friend. I spoke with him over the phone minutes before he died.
I've lost a lot of close people. The above are just the wreck related. I feel your pain man. Very sorry about the loss of your friend.

sux
i had a buddy die not long ago. I feel the same way about feeling good about his troubled soul moving on, than feeling guilth for thinking that, but knowing its right. God i miss him. I feel like i'm already forgetting about him, and he was such a buetiful everyday part of my life. I don't want him to fade out of my mind like this.
