A cheerleader who gave a speech urging her classmates not to "take life for granted" was killed in a car crash just a month later - and the driver has been fined just $120. Caitlyn Carman, 19, was filmed giving an emotional address in which she urged her peers to "live everyday as though it is your last". But tragedy struck just weeks later when Mark Begeman, 53, slammed into the back of her car at 63mph without braking as she drove her 10-year-old half brother home. Caitlyn’s Honda CR-V was pushed into the path of an oncoming semi-truck which struck her, killing her instantly.
