This intersection is so dangerous. Know of a few people killed I'm car accidents here. Witnessed and was almost involved in one there. Cars that are trying to turn Eastbound can NOT see cars heading North on Lafayette Road. A turn signal needs to be put there.
Partially overturned?? Looks all the way overturned to me. Praying for all.
Omgoodness God watch over. I pray them babies are alright
One person is critical so everyone is not ok
