16. I cannot imagine losing my sister, let alone at this time of year. That is so very sad and I will be thinking of Macaulay and his family.

21. TMZ, you have once again proven you are a true class act. I guess you depend on pictures to tell the story because that is something your so-called journalists lack.

22. THIS DIDN'T HAVE TO HAPPEN! PAY ATTENTION WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING! DON'T ASSUME YOU HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY AS A DRIVER OR AS A PEDESTRIAN. EVERY DAY I SEE PEOPLE CROSS THE STREET WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING FIRST!

STOP, LISTEN & LOOK BEFORE YOU DRIVE OR WALK ACROSS THE STREET. THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!

25. The accident happened on at Brennan's Bar on Lincoln Blvd. near Marina Del Rey. Lincoln Blvd at that spot is about 6 lanes across with poor lighting. There is parking near the curb on both sides, a median in the middle and 2 lane traffic both ways. Why on earth would she or ANYONE, for that matter, be crossing that street after having been at a bar? Traffic there is already crazy and no one expects to have to dodge pedestrian there.

26. I volunteer to console Mila (I'm talking about having sex with her).

27. It is pathetic that people complain about TMZ posting these photos. If you don't want to look at them, use some self control and get the hell off this site.

28. If these photos make one person look twice before crossing a street, then they're worth TMZ posting...

I enjoy TMZ. But since this is a public forum, you and everyone else has the right to their own opinions. It's not about having self control. It's about having common decency. And anyhoo, since those comments bother you maybe you should practice that same self control you speak of and simply not read them.

30. NOTHING CAN CHANGE THIS TRAGEDY.

WHAT WE CAN DO IT LEARN TO APPRECIATE LIFE MORE
NOW BECAUSE IT CAN BE OVER IN A SECOND.

LET'S ALL BE MORE AWARE WHEN WE DRIVE.

PEDESTRIANS *ALWAYS* HAVE THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.

ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS.
