Misslibra: she was on Road Rules/Europe in 1996 with Chris/Antoine/Patrice and Belou. I THINK (not verified) the girl she died with was her cousin and they MAY (again not verified) have been on their way home from a birthday party for her mother.

OK Road Rules Europe. I remember Belou and Antoine. Can't remember the rest. I'll have to go do a search of RR Europe to refresh my memory.

That's ok thanks for bringing this article to our attention. What a shame and it sound like it was a pretty bad accident to. :(

They were hit by two cars. One car head on by a 16 year old, and then another car drove by a 30 year old. Both of the drivers of the other cars survived.

Here is the text of the article. I added the bold print because of the comment I want to make:

Two women die in crash near Willis
Copyright 2002 Houston Chronicle
Two women were killed Saturday afternoon in a three-vehicle collision north of Conroe in Montgomery County.

Mandie Parma, 28, of Katy, and Michelle Parma, 27, of Dallas, were killed on Interstate 45 just south of Willis, according to the Department of Public Safety.

Austin Hodges, 16, of Huntsville was southbound in a 2000 Ford when he lost control of the vehicle and crossed the median into the northbound lanes, DPS said. The Ford struck the 2002 Jeep driven by Mandie Parma before it was struck by another northbound vehicle, a 2002 Kia driven by Barbara Kroll, 30, of Montgomery.

Mandie and Michelle Parma died at the scene. Hodges had minor injuries. Kroll was uninjured.

I have never even heard of this TV program, but I wanted to say that I heard today that one out of three new drivers--drivers in their first year since earning a driver's license--is involved in a car accident.

We let new drivers drive unsupervised too soon, in my opinion. I think they should still need a licensed driver with them for six months to a year after receiving the driver's license.

Move to Wisconsin, Sia. We have graduated licenses here so the kids can only drive during certain hours of the day by themselves (at night they have to be with a parent) and there is a limited # of passengers when they drive. I thinkl that lasts for 6 months.

Oregon has the same kind of system, Kaili. Doesn't mean the kids always follow it, though. :(
