So, 16 yr old kid Rams into back of Brambletts vehicle which was stopped waiting to make abturn.

GUARANTEED the kid was playing with his phone and never touched his brake!

This is terrible. Prayers for the Bramblett family and the Auburn community. Article said teenager rear ended the Bramblatt’s car at stop light. Sounds like kid wasn’t paying attention to his driving and traffic. Tragic.

According to Auburn police and the Lee County Coroner, Bill Harris,
the 52-year-old Bramblett and his 53-year-old wife were in a 2017 Toyota
Highlander that was struck in the rear by a Jeep Grand Cherokee driven
by a 16-year-old.

The teen was transported to East Alabama Medical Center with
non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

I know of two accidents of people I knew who were hit from behind while stopped at traffic lights. Both involved drunk drivers. Two in the first accident were killed after their car caught fire. The other was left with a permanent injury.

Some things don’t add up here. A 2017 Highlander should have survived a rear end crash and the airbags should have deployed minimizing injury. T he article does not say they were forced into anything else such as a utility pole or wall. The kid should have gotten the worst of it.
