How fucking horrific, if this woman Carolyn Ramos has any kind of conscience, to realize you have wiped out an entire family in seconds. I am betting she was drunk....

PALM CITY, FL (WRCB) – Three people from Chattanooga are among four people killed by a wrong-way driver in Florida.

Demetrius Suggs, 29, Porscha Suggs, age unknown, and Mercedes Davis, 7, all of Chattanooga, along with Raneisha Powell, 9, of Miami, Florida, died after colliding with a vehicle on I-95, north of Fort Lauderdale early Sunday morning.

The Florida Highway Patrol tells the West Palm Beach NBC the Jeep driven by Carolyn Ramos was travelling southbound in the northbound lanes of the Interstate.

The Suggs truck caught fire, killing all four passengers.

Passerby Barry Staley rushed to pull Ramos from the wreckage just before the Jeep burst into flames.

"I hoped that if something happened to me and my family, I would hope someone would at least give an effort and see if we're okay," Barry Staley told NBC Affiliate WPTV.

Ramos is listed in critical condition.

Investigators are trying to determine how far Ramos traveled in the northbound lanes, and whether she had been drinking.

Charges are pending.

I'm betting she was drinking.
If you LIVE here, you know there are one way roads to get onto I-95 and 595. If you LIVE here, you know which way they both run.
If you LIVE here, and you're drunk... well, you're fucked.

Or she was old and confused. I've seen a lot of these going-the-wrong-way-on-a-one-way incidents have been old people who were confused. Things like the dark, macular degeneration, strange places, signage they don't recognize . . .
