Pepperdine University says four of its students were killed standing near the highway in Malibu, California, on Tuesday.

The four women were on the side of Pacific Coast Highway around 8:30 p.m. when a 22-year-old driver lost control of his sedan, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said. The sedan crashed into three parked vehicles the women were standing between.

The women, later identified by the university as seniors Niamh Rolston, Peyton Stewart, Asha Weir and Deslyn Williams, were pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.

“Earlier today, we learned that four precious lives who brought joy and light to our campus were taken from us suddenly, tragically, and incomprehensibly,” Pepperdine President Jim Gash said in a letter to the campus community.

Pepperdine officials had earlier said they had reason to believe the women were students at its liberal arts college, Seaver College.

Driver was speeding in a BMW around "Dead Man's Curve." Maybe now they'll rename it "Dead Women's Curve."

Seems like every time I see one they are at least 20mph over the limit.

7. Truth!! When I read he was driving a BMW I thought "Of COURSE he was!"

Not only do they habitually speed, they also behave like total assholes by cutting you off, weaving through traffic, etc.
