Suzie: I heard about this accident the day after we witnessed the accident on Erhlich & Farmington involving. Mr. Andre. According to witnesses, Mr. Andre was speeding & weaving in out of traffic as far back from Sickles HS heading east & he did run the red light there. I am a nurse and have seen much death in my career, but these accidents r not a good way to go. When I was 16 many years ago I almost hit a cyclist, I did not even see him until he came up to my window screaming & cussing. I guess I had a blind spot on my VW. I was so upset I could barely drive the 4 blocks to our house. My thoughts & prayers go out to both of these 2 young men that lost their lives on a terrible day in Tampa Bay as well to their families & friends. Ehrich Road is a dangerous road and way to many people drive to fast. I will intentionally drive out of my way to avoid turning left onto Bellamy Rd to go home because everyone is speeding. Please people slow down, you do not have to get to the next light b4 me. Also put down the phones and pay attention to what u r doing while on the road! Good luck to all that get behind the wheel. 8 years ago > REPLY
