I spent 17 years living rurally and regularly walking at night along an unlit, gravel road. We would walk down the middle of the road and we would hear any approaching vehicles long before we saw their headlights.

I can't comprehend how these kids didn't hear the car coming?

yes the youngest was in bed, one of the older ones was beside me in the car (having just picked him up from a 21st birthday of one of his club hockey team mates) and the one in Ireland was playing a game of soccer Otago Youth team V Bangor club in Belfast, our boys won 7.0 with my boy scoring. is that good enough????

Yes it most certainly is ... You will be as proud of them as your parents will be of you.

They would have seen and heard the car, but they would believe the car would see THEM ... and avoid THEM. Few do not realise how hard it is to see a person walking on/across the road at night. Even in the glare of headlights.

Yeah and proberly wasted... fark knows, why does anything happen?

You mean you don't drive on the road? More's the point, what does ANY road carnage have to do with you if you weren't there and involved...

think about it "DOH"

Motorcycling carnage has plenty to do with me - even if I wasn't there and involved.

On ya, if know one gives a shit... then the next dead could be them.

What a terrible tragedy. My heart goes out to the families of all involved last night. Man, that is a terrible thing to happen.

Went to school with the guy. Horrible way to go at such a young age.

This may be tragic for the family involved but the fact that it was a cop that crushed Mr Hoodie is just a coincidence. If you really want to get squashed, getting drunk, stoned & what ever on a main road is a really good start.

Sad as it may be, the only people I really feel sorry for in this case is the cop and his/her family.
