TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

The pickup's passenger was 38-years-old, so it's unclear why the 13-year-old was driving.

The driver's age may have been irrelevant if a failed spare tire led to the crash.

Whatever the case, this was a tragedy for all involved.

There's more news on that horrific crash on a Texas highway Tuesday night that killed nine. Officials said Thursday that a 13-year-old was driving the pickup that collided head on with a van carrying members of New Mexico university's golf team.

The investigation also revealed that the pickup was traveling on a spare tire in place of its left front wheel and the spare seemingly failed, leading to the truck swerving into the van.

Members of the University of the Southwest men's and women's golf teams were on their way to a tournament when the crash occurred. (NBC News)
