Another wacko driver

PEMBROKE, N.C. — A woman driving a car faster than 100 mph jumped railroad tracks in a Robeson County town and slammed into two motorcycles, killing the bikers and injuring a third rider, police said.

Police Chief Dwayne Hunt said the driver of the car never braked late Friday as she sped into the town of Pembroke in a four-door Saturn and lost control, The Fayetteville Observer reported Monday.

The motorcycles were hit as they turned into a gas station lot with other riders. Hunt said 16 people witnessed the crash.

Virginia C. Locklear, of Lumberton, died instantly, Hunt said. She was a passenger on one bike, and the driver was critically injured. Hunt said Marie D. Locklear, of Pembroke, was alone on the other bike and was killed.

Julie Miller, 40, of Mount Pleasant, S.C., was charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter and one count of assault with a deadly weapon, the chief said. She was being held at the Robeson County Jail under $1.25 million bond.

Hunt said Miller said she couldn't recall the crash and tested negative for alcohol and drugs. He said he would send a detective to South Carolina to try to determine why she was in the Robeson County town.

The Saturn came to a stop two blocks from the crash scene, and Hunt said one motorcycle was cut in half.

"We had debris for two city blocks. Motorcycle parts," Hunt said.


100 MPH over RR tracks in a Saturn ???

Hope she gets life in jail and my condolences go out to the Innocent riders and their families:(

That could be a possiblity

A few months ago near my house an elderly couple were killed along with the driver of another car traveling in the opposite direction when one of the drivers had a diabetic seizure and crossed the lanes.
