The car didn't stop either.

I have worked in Emergency rooms were similar accidents have happened to children.
The underlying issue is accidents are accidents and we can't kick our selves for what we did or did not do. The loss of a loved one the pain of our loss is punishment enough. I think it would be a great idea to use tragic stories to help us be more aware of safety and maybe we can be more diligent in the future ourselves and pray for those who have lossed loved ones to heal.

I agree.
