You can't travel west on hastings and turn right to travel south on Nanaimo. It's only possible to turn left in order to travel south on Nanaimo. Unless they meant travelling east, then it's possible to turn right onto Nanaimo.

Such a tragic way to die, especially at a young age.

So tragic to die so young and away from home.

Hope he didn't die not knowing the pleasures of life.

RIP, condolences to his family

Edit - Apparently he was running for the bus to head to core studio for pe class, my buddy that goes to temp says the teacher wanted them there even though it was a collaborative day

Still totally speculation, but based on the pictures... I'm assuming the umbrella sitting in the middle of the road is his... and maybe he was holding it in a way that was partially obscuring his view... and he was waiting for the dump truck to finish the turn... but after the truck passed by, he didn't realize that it was towing the trailer behind it, and he started walking, and got pulled under the wheels of the trailer.

Are you kidding me? You hope he didn't die not knowing the pleasures of life??? He was 17 for f**k sakes. He didnt get a chance to learn most of the pleasures of life. Its a shame that people die so young

At least there's no pain. He prolly didn't even know he's about to die when it happened. .

RIP, hope the kid wasn't listening to music or looking down at his device! I've seen so many young people do this and more often then never, they come close to death by not paying attention to dangers.
