Oswego, NY – Young drivers and fast driving have long been a problem. Parents often fear the thought despite assurances from their teenage son or daughter that they will drive safely.
But two separate fatal accidents recently involving teen drivers occurred with the acknowledgement from their families that the two victims liked to drive fast. WRVO's Chris Ulanowski prepared this report.
