Shuddering here when I see that picture, as it's too close for me currently...just 5 weeks ago, I had the same horrific experience... even though it was 2 of us being hit and thrown in the air by a speeding, distracted (turning around and reaching into the back seat to play with her 2yo nephew!) driver, who already had a wretched record of traffic infractions and criminal cases, showing her disregard for the safety of anyone else on the road.
I agree that driver education and enforcement have to be prioritized. This senseless tragedy didn't have to happen...just heartbreaking.
