2 Killed, 4 Injured In Queens Car Crash

2009_05_qnsacc.jpg Yesterday afternoon, a car crash near JFK Airport claimed the lives of two people and injured four others. According to NY1, "Police say a Toyota Corolla traveling southbound on Brookville Boulevard in Rosedale crossed over into the northbound lane and collided into a minivan. The driver of the Corolla, Stephen Bachoon, 17, and one of his passengers, Chris Basdeo, 16, were pronounced dead at the scene." The Corolla's four other passengers—all teens—were taken to the hospital as was the minivan's 70-year-old driver. WTEN points out that you must be 18 year old to drive in New York City.

18 or not, who the hell packs 6 people into a Corolla and thinks anything about that is a good idea.

Sorry to say but this happens every year about this time.
Too many kids in a car and joking around probably is not a good combination. Somewhere I read an article about how the accident rate among teens increases geometrically with the number of teens in a car.

Six kids in a Corolla? Mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be drivers.

5 copies of the same comment? Mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be r1b2.

Kids, you just don't want to go down as "died in a Corolla" Find a sexier, more iconic vehicle to kill yourselves and your friends in.

Always remembered;; NEVER forgotten.

People are making jokes and that's mad foul. Chris went to my skool and people all around were sad and we hadda moment of silence. And the rest went to thomas edison high school and girls in the halls were crying and everything. You should be ashamed of yourself for making stupid remarks

shut the fuck up..it aint funny n u aint either..show sum respect..buh u prbably cant...parents probably never showed u how 2

ya qot nerve, they wasnt stupid teenaqerz or any of what ya think they were. so how about you know them before you judqe them. those were my boyz that died. im sure you wouldnt want somebody talkinq about your friendz if that happened to them. rest in peace stephen and chris. one love

Yall must have some nerve two people are DEAD. Yea they may have made some dumb choices but really think about the fact that their grieving friends are going to be on here looking for answers. One dumb mistake doesn't make a dumb person and it doesn't add any less value to the lives that were lost and that are fighting for their lives. Be civil and to the friends and family i am SO sorry for your loss and pain.

All of you guys that cracked jokes and call them stupid are complete jerks. My best friends knew Stephen Bachoon since like 4th grade. Have some freaking respect. People do stupid things. That doesn't make them stupid.

I'm in High School, mother's day weekend we had a really popular kid commit suicide on mother's day. There were so many people crying, even the big tough guys, the people nobody thought would cry were crying like babies. My point is, is that I never knew the kid, never even met him. I didn't say one cross thing that day. I could have made jokes. Gods knows I had enough that popped into my head. But I didn't because it was disrespectful to the dead, their family, and their friends. There is I time to make fun of people and times when you never should.

Death is nothing to joke about or make fun of. You say that they had no brains for fitting that many in that car. You have no brains for making fun of them and cracking jokes.

I am so sadden to see the bad language, the unfeeling remarks and mean comments. The truth of the matter is that this is a tragady beyond words even though I do not know those that died. But for those of us who are fortunante to have another day of life, be careful when you are driving, cars are dangerous and thousands of people-old and young-die every day. Using cell phones, drinking and driving;and speeding among other things can cause an accident. I don't know what caused this accident, but the driver was under the acceptable age for NYC. Obey the law and pray every day for traveling mercies. MY sympathies to the families.
