Very sad. 

that's a big crash

Shahed Hussain, the owner of the limousine that crashed and killed these people, had testified in a very high profile terrorism case in the US.

Very sad, had lunch with a friend today and she told me theya were on their way to a 30th birthday party.  One couple who died left a little baby and 4 members of one family died too. 

That is unbelievable.

May their souls RIP!

The FBI should investigate further about this fella and his activities. The news reported that he is currently in Pakistan, a nest for radicals.

The limo should not have been on the road, it had failed a mechanical test.

Don't think the two are related. The company has a history of bad maintenance and failed inspections. Looks like a case of greed and profit over safety.

That is correct and the driver did not have a commercial licence. It just does not add up. Did the driver commit an act of terror ?

Fuss question, is he Muslim?

The bad part of this accident is that law enforcement found out the details about the driver after 20 people are dead. If this had done before, the victims may be alive today. Unfortunately, we will live to read more "after the fact" matters in the future. The idea is fresh and many will point fingers and shifting blames, but nothing that we learn from this tragedy will be enforced to avoid another accident.

Prince, don't talk stupidness!  What can the police do?  These Limo services have both CDL and non-CDL vehicles.  It's for the admin in the Limo service to assign the correct driver.  These are the rules and laws.  If the Limo service does not follow rules, how can the police monitor that?

You don't know what caused the accident, so you cannot propose a solution.  The fact that he was not CDI licensed may be irrelevant.
