73-year-old woman dies after car crashes into South County home

I agree, they know that she wasn't speeding, 73 year old don't do that (not in a city anyway). Poor lady probably had a stroke or heart attack. There sure are a lot of rude comments in this feed, glad you said something nice.

A woman has a medical incident and ends up at such a speed that her vehicle goes airborne and destroys part of a house, and the only thing the news people get out of that is "We need to do something about speeding"?! How out of touch can they get?

That's what I was thinking. Why was she speeding? Did she have a heart attack? Did she have a stroke because she took the freaking vaccine? God forbid they mention that. I don't think any conscious person would have continued at that rate of speed. I personally think she was dead before she went off the road but you are right the news is out to left field as usual

Oh MyG***!!! You CANT compare SPEEDING to a 73 year old woman who suffered a medical emergency!!! Shame on you! ! !

[@patraic5241]

I've no doubt either that lady passed out or died behind the wheel. When that happens the body slumps down and slides forward often the right foot pushes the accelerator to the floor. The same thing happens when someone falls asleep at the wheel. This has Nothing to do with posted speed limits.

Everybody out there are all assuming she had a medical emergency because that is what the television stations are all saying she had. Nobody will know anything until they have an autopsy on her and do a total drug screen also. Assumption is the MOTHER of all F-ups. My condolences to her family for their great loss.

No people speed becuase the city doesnt allow cops to do their jobs properly or give them the resources required. Hire some police and have them start writing traffic citations.

Ya i dont feel sorry for her, at a certain age older then 70 you should not legally be able to drive, because most elderly people are in bad health, have poor vision and cannot safely operate a motor vehicle anymore. her death was on her. at 70 plus years of age you should know that speeding heavily increases your chance of dying significantly. dosent matter how old you are if you lack common sense and critical thinking ability, you will end up passing.

I don’t give a sh*# how old the victim was. There is no age exception that allows one the right to speed excessively and endanger lives and welfare of others. If you got an emergency, dial 911, DON’T endanger the lives of others while in the process trying to save yours. Let help come to you. As for the elder women, you know when you drive fast when your health or body is compromised, it increases your chances being in a fatality accident. Hope the lesson learned- RIP!

This went right over your head lol. I’m pretty sure they meant she was already behind the wheel and had a stroke or something and therefore lost control of the car. Tragic and innocent accident. They weren’t saying that she broke her arm at home, then got in the car to speed the hospital causing a deadly crash. The speeding story and the lady suffering a medical emergency have nothing to do with each other. Bad reporting by the news.
