ST. PAUL — A driver involved in a crash on a wet interstate in the Twin Cities was struck and killed after she got out of her vehicle.
The Minnesota State Patrol says the driver of a car collided with a pickup and both vehicles hit the median wall along southbound Interstate 35 about 11 p.m. Wednesday. Both drivers got out of their vehicle. Twenty-one-year-old Jennifer Ehnstrom, of Chisago, was struck by a passing Toyota pickup and killed.
The Toyota then hit a minivan that had pulled over.

    She was struck by a Toyota pickup? The pickup, an inanimate object, has a will of its own and chose to kill her, then chose to hit another vehicle also? Why the effort to accuse the vehicle rather than hold the driver responsible? Should we outlaw all pickups which(seemingly) start themselves, then hunt for victims to maim and kill, or should we hold their operators responsible? Will the surviving families file suit against the pickup for the death, or against the driver?

    HEY JEROME, WHAT IS YOUR ?

    This is horrible, we should immediately call for a banned of pickups. Obviously our society can’t survive without the blood thirsty menaces not being controlled by the Federal government.

    Are you guys SERIOUSLY that butt hurt over the gun stuff. How old are we here. If you have such a problem with things, in this country, maybe you should move some where else.. like China, where they don’t even have a voice. You guys turned this automobile crash into a way to vent about other things. Grow up.
