Angry Drive safe, people

So I was driving back to the office after a meeting, and I noticed the intersection of lakewood and firestone at downey is blocked (I work at the corner) with police car and everything. It took me a while to get back to the office and my coworker told me there is a hit and run, and the girl that got hit died... I look over the window and I see this covered body. I think this is like the first time I see a dead body on the street (altough it is covered). Just want to tell you guys to drive safe...

And the sadest thing is, the dad saw the whole thing. The dad's truck was across the street waiting for her while this whole thing happened.
