that the family will not have to fork out money for the key or salvage as other businesses have waived their fees.

So regardless of who went to the media, or what the rental company has demanded the companies involved in the actual recovery are not billing either parties it would seem.

Not only should they pay their damn bill, They should be charged for recovery of the bodies, and I hope no one else is put in harms way due to the actions of members of this family.

[rphenix]

they want funds they should get it out of the dead's estate and not the parents. I hope the parents ignore the good Samaritan offer to pay for the bill and tell the car company to f** off.

[reofix]

All you critics want the rental car company to pay $2000 of someone elses bill.... i suggest you forward your cheques for $2000 to the victims at your earliest convienience

I'm glad those two morons are dead. They ignored the repeated warning signs and died, I'd call them Darwin Award candidates, and their death makes the gene pool that little bit better.
I also have fuckall sympathy for any tourist that doesn’t have travel insurance. Personally I hope that the government sends the family a very large bill for the services of the emergency services etc that attended. Travelling without insurance is yet more proof that these two were morons. We shouldn’t let people off the bloody plane unless they provide proof of comprehensive travel insurance, it really pisses me off that my taxpayer dollars were spent trying to recover these morons.
Everyone also needs to get off the rental companies back; they had already waived _their_ charges (late fees etc) and were simply passing on what they were charged by other companies for the towing of the car and the new keys. Why in the hell should any small business owner cop 2grand worth of bills because 2 of his customers have single digit IQ’s?

My 2 cents

[MisterD]

It's academic now, people from all over the country have been offering money to the family to pay the bills...

New Zealand - rewarding stupidity since 1840.

I think that statement says more about you than them.

Yes - they were stupid. But to actually say you are glad they died is very sad.

It's not them personally, I'm glad everytime Darwin's theory of evolution is proved. Seriously, everytime someone does something terminally stupid it is undeniable improving the genepool of the human race.

Very sad to think you are happy because some clown made a mistake and paid for it with their life. And to say you didn't mean it personally?? WTF your first line seemed directly personal towards them
Makes you wonder how many times you've made a stupid mistake but luckily nothing that bad happened to you.
Yes they should pay for the recovery of the bodies as others are put at risk doing so.
Travel insurance might not have done Fark all to help them either if they only had the basic cover as most people take out.

Like I said.. we should require all tourists to have comprehensive (not basic) travel insurance before they are allowed to leave the airport..

Just because someone does something stupid - doesn't mean that they aren't fantastic people who contribute to society and do a lot of good.

I feel your idea of 'Improving' the gene-pool is somewhat flawed.

I'm probably a lot smarter than you - would that mean its better for society as a whole that you die first?

I agree they should have comprehensive as you never know what would happen while you travel, unfortunately for most people they look at the cost and think that outweighs the risk.
