Teenager Killed While Texting And Driving










If you don't believe that texting while driving can kill you, this next story might.


A 19-year old man from Fredericton, John Sommerville is dead after a crash on Highway two near Pokiok yesterday.


RCMP say Sommerville crashed into a rockwall in the median which seperates the east and westbound lanes.

A 20-year old passenger in the vehicle was taken to hospital and is going to be alright.

Officers say it looks like Sommerville was sending a text message while driving and may have been a factor for the crash.
