Just finding out about this; maybe both were punters; and apparently another injured kicker in the backseat. How tragic. Happened on wet roads in Wisconsin. May the Lord lift up their souls.

This turned out as bad as possible. I'd think they probably were driving a decent car vs. some old clunker. I've got to think though alcohol was not found, maybe the driver was going fast even on slippery roads. Maybe the survivor can shed some light on this. I read in another article that it might have been raining very heavily at that.
