Holy crap prepare to be weirded out
We're going to be honest with you: There is really no way to build up the following story. It's just one of those things that is mathematically possible in the vastness of universe, but when it happens, it's creepier than those twin little girls from The Shining.
Where it Gets Weird:
In July 1975, newspapers on both sides of the Atlantic went nuts over the death of 17-year-old Erskine Lawrence Ebbin, the poor kid having been knocked off his moped by a taxi in Hamilton, Bermuda.
You see, the previous year his brother was killed ... on the same street. Also by a taxi. Both kids were 17, and they were hit almost one year apart. Oh, and they happened to be driving the same moped.
Moped show-boating claims two more lives.
Well ... OK. Mopeds are inherently unsafe, right? And maybe they both drove recklessly. It could happen.
Where it Gets Even Weirder:
Before we go any further, please know that Cracked had to check with several overseas libraries and even the Library of Congress to verify this report.
The following clipping appeared on page nine, column three of The Scunthorpe Evening Telegraph on July 21, 1975:
That's right.
The two brothers were killed by the same taxi.
With the same driver.
Carrying the same passenger.
Almost exactly one year later.
The Final Destination movies exist, folks, and you are living in them right now.

Re: Holy crap prepare to be weirded out
Sounds wayyyyyy too coincidental. Maybe the taxi driver was a serial killer and planned it all.

I'm with Hannah. There has to be a plot here.

Re: Holy crap prepare to be weirded out
But if it was a plot the passenger would have to be part of it was well. And then it would be kinda pointless for both of them to put themselves at the sight. And there is the moped.....I don't know. Seems more like a crazily creepy coincidence.
And they are after in Bermuda
