19 Killed in Traffic Accidents Over Holiday Weekend

According to the Department of Public Safety, 19 people were killed and 682 were injured in traffic accidents over the busy holiday weekend. Most of these accidents were the result of speeding, drunk driving, and driver inattention. When a loved one is killed because of an irresponsible or reckless driver, family members want to see that the people responsible for their loved one’s death are brought to justice.
