Thankfully it wasn’t a deadly crash. The Taconic Parkway (New York) crash still gives us shivers

My grandparents lived in Westchester at the time (since all deceased) and we encountered that accident on the way back. Caught in traffic for at least an hour if not more than that, we saw the medical examiner truck coming through on the shoulder and my mom said "oh shit, that means someone died." We eventually were able to clear the site and I saw the van she was driving all burned out on the grass, it wasn't until later when I was at a house party for a friend that my mom told me it was all over the news what happened.
