Don't normally spend much time on Fox, but found this Memorial Day Weekend story.

Another unfortunate collision between a pontoon and a runabout.

A pregnant woman and a young child were killed Saturday when their family's boat collided with a speedboat on a North Carolina lake.

Wildlife officials said a speedboat collided and went over the top of a pontoon boat around 12:30 p.m. Saturday on the northern part of the High Rock Lake near Linwood.

Condolences to the family and friends of the deceased in this boating accident. Very sad to have to read a story like that.

Sad to hear. I hate the way the media portrays the accident "They said the speed boat was driving well over 25 mph in a shallow part of the lake. No one on the speed boat was injured." If its not a pontoon or a jet ski it must be a speedboat.

Very sad to hear this!

Very sad news, but completely biased and uninformed reporting. Media always has to pick the villain and make him/her/it more villainous.

There is no speed limit on that lake. That was a damn near head on collision. It could very well have been the operator of the pontoon boat's fault; or not.

May well be just a lack of knowledge or understanding of the "Rules of the Road". Either or both could easily be at fault.

Sad day, condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.
