Fatal Accident between Cabo and Todos Santos

I saw it first on the Todos Santos Newsfeed Facebook group, but Mexico News Daily also reports 7 fatalities and 1 injury on Highway 19 between Cabo San Lucas and Todos Santos. So far I haven't confirmed where along the highway it was, but it seems it was closer to Cabo - perhaps south of the intersection with the airport toll road.

Apropos of absolutely nothing, here is what I woke up to this morning.



Did I mention how much I miss Baja?

Heard about this accident yesterday can't verify accuracy. Fast moving tour bus vs. slow moving semi. Someone asleep at the wheel. 7.5Km near Caligas.

How can it be -35 F in Yellowstone?

Hey Paul? Come on down. It's warm here. Hee hee.

So sad that 7 people lost their lives. The group was headed to La Paz for a transportation meeting...Uber vs the Taxi Mafia. Last week a taxi driver was mad that some people were taking an Uber...he used his van to force the Uber driver's car into a Cadillac SUV. All three people in the Uber were injured along with the SUV driver. The first link below shows the video. Now the Taxi Mafia is saying the "7 deaths are the Uber driver fault" because that is the reason the people were going to La Paz.
