    Unfortunate two people were killed that perhaps could've been prevented.At 5:22am it is still dark and those highways alot of the times are difficult to see.An investigation will be done to determine the cause of the wreck.And I'm curious to know what happened and not just wonder the cause.One could've fell asleep at the wheel or swirved trying to miss something.I had a friend who was driving on hwy.51 coming from Cushing,Ok. to Tulsa at 11:30pm. And said he nodded off for a split second. And ran off the road going 50 + mph and ended up in a ditch some 400 + yards from the highway.He said an angel was with him that night and climbed out of his totaled car unharmed.Accidents happen all over this state on these highways, especially in the wee hours of the night or morning..Me personally,I believe he nodded off just for a split second,that's all it takes.These long stretches on the highway can wear on a set of tired eyes....
