A woman died in a head-on collision, but when they checked her phone and saw her Facebook page, they were speechless.

Police said a woman died in a head-on collision on a US highway right after updating her Facebook status and posting selfies.

The 32-year-old, Courtney Sanford, posted on her Facebook page at 8:33 on Thursday morning, saying, “The happy song makes me so HAPPY.” Police were called about the crash at 8:34 that same morning.

According to the officers, Ms. Sanford was driving alone when her car crossed the center line, crashed into a recycling truck, and caught fire. The collision caused the truck to be pushed off the road.

She was driving on Interstate 85 in North Carolina on her way to work. The police said there was no evidence that her speed, drug use, or alcohol was a factor in the crash.

The Facebook link wasn’t revealed until this past weekend, when her friends told the police that several of her online posts seemed to have been made around the same time as the accident.

Lt. Chris Weisner from the High Point Police Department said the crash was a real-life example of what happens when you text and drive, as reported by WGHP TV.

Lt. Weisner explained that Ms. Sanford had been taking selfies on the highway and updating her social media just before the crash.

He said, “In just a few seconds, a life was lost so she could tell her friends she was happy. It’s really not worth it.”

He added that, while it’s sad, it’s a serious reminder for everyone to stay focused while driving.

John Wallace Thompson, 73, was driving the truck involved in the crash and was not injured.

16 Celebs Who Don’t Care About “What People Say” When It Comes to Breastfeeding

Being a woman is no simple task. And if we talk about being a mother, the equation becomes twice as complicated. Among all the challenges that motherhood brings, supplying something as basic as food for the baby is at the top of the list. And to help people to not see it as something “out of place” or “wrong,” some celebrities do not hesitate to breastfeed their children in public, proudly and in full view of anyone who wants to see it.

At Bright Side, we salute celebrities who empower breastfeeding and the actions that come with it (like pumping). After all, what could be more natural and human?
