Underage drinking is deadly

So the charter party bus company allows underage drinking?
They're screwed.

So many questions...
So did the bus crash, which caused her to fall out of the window? Or was her falling out and the subsequent chaos the "crash?"
ETA: Just watched the video in the link. Damn, looks like she just fell out. The owner of the charter company even shows the news channel how secure the windows are. I'm not sure I can blame the charter company for this one...

A matter of months wouldn't have made this less likely. Binge drinking culture is deadly.
I don't understand why a good buzz isn't acceptable anymore, getting shithoused is not fun.

The article didn't say anything about her drinking or being drunk.
I mean, we can all assume, but that's about it.

I'm no lawyer, but depending on what actually went down, I'm not sure how liable they could possibly be. Especially if they weren't actually furnishing alcohol and/or they weren't drinking on the bus.
What laws are there against allowing intoxicated underage people from boarding a chartered vehicle? If there were, cabs would be ID'ing everyone before they got in.

No crash
The man being interviewed in the video demonstrated how the lever had to be firmly pressed down to open the window so it could swing open, but once it closed, it immediately locked again. Could have been horsing around. You’re right. Lots of questions to be answered in this.

so will this count as a sorority death or a fraternity death?

Party buses are trashy.

They're the cruise ships of the highways.

Indeed. Being in college and having fun with friends while ensuring that nobody has to drive drunk is truly the epitome of trashy.

Death dont care if your beautiful or not.
Sounds like alcohol maybe involved in this one. Never the Less prayers to the family for losing a daughter.
Piece of their lives gone to soon.
