Excessive Speed Takes Teen Passenger's Life
Thursday afternoon, most of Tania Enamorado’s classmates had gone home for the day. Enamorado, however, was cruising around Dallas with her friend and her teenage cousin. The drive would have been uneventful except for one event: the driver, Enamorado’s cousin, driving at an excessive rate of speed, hit a puddle, lost control of her car, and slammed into a utility pole. The accident sent the driver and a passenger to the hospital. Tragically, Enamorado was killed immediately.
Did the driver have a license? No. Was she driving at excessive speed? Yes. Is she responsible for the safety of her passengers? Absolutely. The life and death of Enamorado stands as an important reminder for teens, passengers, and parents alike: drivers are legally responsible for the safety of their passengers.
