DRIVER'S LICENSE?
There's something wrong about that issue.
There's something wrong about that issue.
Part of one report that indicated the driver had violations 4 years
ago. If his license had been suspended, the
reason is customarily reported, and frankly, it could be for
failure to pay excise tax, child support or any number of unrelated
issues.
They would have reported expired or lapsed if that were the case.
Massachusetts licenses are good for 5 years, expire on your birthday.
And your auto insurance runs your license when they renew your
insurance coverage.
Only one reporter is needed to step forward with the TRUTH!
Only one attorney is needed to file a class action suit for all
of those families.
Is there anyone out there with INTEGRITY?
The Auto Auction will not have enough insurance for 3 deaths.
While it's tragic,is that the catalyst for JUSTICE?
Is this Slip shod reporting?

'I'm Very Upset': Driver in Fatal Auto Auction Crash Speaks
By Michael Rosenfield
The driver behind the wheel in the deadly Lynnway Auto Auction crash is talking about the devastating accident for the first time.
The long-time employee, who is not being named by NBC Boston, said the Jeep he was driving inside the building suddenly raced out of control.
“Defective car that took off all by itself,” the driver said. “I didn’t make it go. I put it in drive and something in the car accelerated out of control - it took a fraction of a second."
Brenda Lopez, 48, and Pantaleon Santos, 49, both of Rhode Island, died at the scene, and 36-year-old Leezandra Aponte of Lowell, Massachusetts, was pronounced dead later at Lahey Hospital in Burlington, according to Middlesex County District Attorney Marian Ryan.
Seven men and a woman who were injured in the crash have been treated and released from area hospitals, but a 55-year-old man is still hospitalized with serious injuries.
“I’m very upset, and very unhappy and very sorry about what happened and who got hurt,” the driver said Friday night.
The driver says he had broken bones in his arm and leg.
He’s now recuperating at home.
