All kids, 5 killed instantly, the 6th in critical condition.
Six kids on one quad, no helmets, night time, on a dark two lane public highway. Hit head on by a car.
ALL of the safety rules were broken. Sigh:(
Heres the link

Yeah, it has been such a sad story that it has been on our news several times a day here in Cali.

So stupid, I haven't read the article but I'll bet anything that they also had their lights off.

Its a shame that 5 children were killed, and one seriously injured because of stupidity such as that.
Not the kind of news I like to hear. This really makes our sport look good.

Yeah, notice how in the article on that link they post a picture of a bear tracker and say "this is a bear tracker similiar to the one they were killed on".. Which is basically going to give people that are also idiots the impression that it was the bikes fault.
