      If I were in the car I would have told the driver to slow down and drive more cautiously. This accident could have been avoided if the driver would have driven more responsible and all the passengers should have been wearing their seatbelts. If I were the driver of the vehicle I would be filled with guilt for causing people none the less, my friends to lose their lives. I would expect everything that came to me. I think the punishment is fitting because she understands what she did and has time to think on it and spread the message of what reckless driving could do.

      If I was in that car I would have first asked the driver to slow down. If the driver did not then I would’ve asked the driver to let me out because I would have been very nervous and anxious. I also would make sure that everyone was buckled because driving with no seat belt is very dangerous. This accident could’ve been avoided if the driver slowed down and followed the speed limits posted. I also think that girls should’ve spoken up and realized that speeding is not something to take lightly. If I was the driver I would’ve felt awful and terribly guilty. I think that the driver received a fine punishment because she had to live with the guilt of killing 3 girls.

      If I was in that car that night I think I definitely would have told her to slow down because I know for a fact that going at that speed would make me feel very uncomfortable and not safe. I think this accident could have definitely been avoided if one of the girls were to speak up or if the driver would have realized how dangerous this is and how many peoples lives she is putting at risk by going that fast. If I was the driver of that crash I would feel guilty for the rest of my life but that was the risk the driver took by going that fast. I think that she did receive a good amount punishment because not only is she being punished but she also is raising awareness by sharing her story and she has to live with the fact that she took some lives and but other in serious danger.
