I drove right down this exact spot just hours earlier, and was going to on the way back, but heard on the news it the highway was closed.

Rumour already flying in nearby Rouleau (of Corner Gas fame) that this is a texting and driving collision. How else can anyone explain a crash like this with perfect driving conditions, a straight road, flat land? It scares me sometimes you know.

Horrible. I hope none of the three had young children. Very sad.
