Please, do not look for sympathy on this blog. And as others have mentioned thank GOD she didn't kill anyone else.

Her death is tragic, no doubt about that. But how fucking stupid can you be? Seriously. At least talking on a cell phone you can still keep your eyes on the road. Putting on your make up requires you to stare at nothing but yourself in the mirror. Take the right to drive away from women until the prove they deserve it.

This is what happens when people forget that driving is an activity that easily endangers lives both inside and outside of the car if you're not paying attention. The standards that American drivers have to meet to get a license are ludicrously low. The enforcement that comes after they get the licenses is damn near nonexistent. I saw a woman coming off an offramp a couple of weeks ago. Did five things wrong in 30 seconds. She tried to make an illegal U-turn off the ramp so she wouldn't have to go around the block to turn around. Turned too tightly so she was suddenly driving the wrong way on the lane she was originally supposed to merge with. Drove back over the wedge median onto the ramp -- now facing the wrong way there, too. Backed up slightly, changed direction and came back down the end of the ramp. And as she passed, I could see she had a cell phone glued to her ear and was laughing as if she was saying, "Oh, silly me! I just made a boo boo." It's not funny, you stupid bitch! She's just lucky there weren't any other cars coming at the time.

this woman was my coworkers' friend.Please don't make light of it...we've all made bad decisions when driving( ie talking on the phone, blasting the radio or other distractions).

If she hit a black person, we'd have to march on the cosmetics district.

Ooh! Ooh Let me!! I agree with Rufus - thank God she only killed herself. Imagine if she mowed down a group of schoolchildren because she couldn't be bothered to put her makeup on at home. I'm sure she'll look really pretty in her casket.

Good point, Yf. I'm comforted to know that I share the road with these commenters who have clearly never had a moment's lapse in judgment in their entire lives. Must be nice for them.

Our beloved commenter pool is especially compassionate and charitable today! Anyone else care to add to the joyful condemnation of this dead person?

"She doesn't even really wear makeup. Just when she goes to church, or for a special occasion." Yeah, like her funeral. Seriously, all joking aside, thank God she only killed herself. Thankfully she's out of the gene pool now.
