  1. This is a very tragic situation. I knew this young man and he was such a good person. He will be truly missed. Very sad day.

  2. This is such a sad waste of life. I am sorry for the family loss. This shows how important seat belt use is. I would be surprised if the investigation proved Mr. Brisco was wearing his.

    1. I hope he didn’t suffer for to long. This is very sad and unfortunate situation. I pray that this young man family and love one’s fine peace.

    2. Seatbelt use has nothing to do with it. He was cut off by someone in the rain cause if this tragic accident and the person did not stop or call it in.

          1. With no seatbelt on, what part of that do you not understand? Nothing was holding him to the driver seat of the vehicle hence why he was ejected from the vehicle

        1. seltbelt has nothing to do with it he always wore his seltbelt. it is the other driver that was carless of speeding cutting him off!!!

      1. “Seatbelt use has nothing to do with it.” ???
        The article says:
        “The sole occupant of the vehicle was found lying in the roadway after being ejected from the vehicle.”
        Yes, it was the ‘lack of’ seatbelt use which had a whole lot to do with it.

  3. Let’s see, because it’s Maryland here’s the causes of this crash
    1 speed
    2 unsafe lane changes, darting in and out of lanes, cutting people off
    3 on the phone
    4 obviously no seatbelt
    5 tailgating
    6 more speeding

    1. Only speak facts! No matter who is at fault a father has lost his son! Put yourself in his parents shoes! This was a very good young man, and a devastating lost to his family and friends! GOD KNOWS THE TRUTH!

    2. you dont know what happend or how it did but at the end of the day the truck shouldnt have cut him off and left PERIOT..

      1. Literally every single accident is caused by one or more of the six factors I stated, my comment stands
        And yes I’ve buried my son because he chose to be a idiot behind the wheel

        1. This accident occurred because a reckless driver cut him off and hit him cause him to lose control strike the crib, flip his car and hit a tree. He had the top down in his bmw roadster and it cause him to be ejected onto the roadway.

  4. Whats truly heartbreaking is, I was just looking at other headlines and this same man who was killed commented on another fatal accident headline, telling readers to slow down and pay attention so accidents aren’t fatal. Very eerie. RIP 🙏🏼
