Five members of a Texas family were killed as they set off for a "dream trip" to Disney World when a 16-year-old boy apparently fell asleep at the wheel, causing the family's SUV to roll over, police said Thursday. Police charged the boy, who had a driver's license, with reckless driving. The dead included the driver's parents, primary-school teachers Michael and Trudi Hardman, and three of their children — Dakota Watson, 15, Adam Hardman, 7, and Kaci Hardman, 4.
