18 People Dead Near LA

At least 18 people were killed and 135 injured when a passenger train packed with rush-hour commuters slammed head-on into a freight train Friday in suburban Los Angeles, a spokeswoman for the Metrolink train service said Saturday. A commuter rail car lies on its side after a collision Friday near Los Angeles, California. At least three more people remain trapped inside the train and are presumed dead.

How awful! Is there any safe way to travel anymore?
