    Bad enough any time, but this time of the year could not be worse. RIP.

    Absolutely tragic news mate, RIP to all the victims and thoughts and prayers with their families. The idea of those poor people going about their day, looking forward to Christmas with their families, then to have it all taken away from them...

    It's things like this and the Phillip Hughes tragedy from a few weeks ago that really put life into perspective. I often think all that noise about "living life to the full" and "live each day as if it were your last" to be corny, but it's bloody true.

    Well nowt official that I can find.
    But there's two theories.
    One is that the driver had a bad turn or summat.
    The other is that it was deliberate.

    Just heard three of the victims were an elderly couple with their Granddaughter. It's utterly mortifying. That's f**ing devastating :(

    RIP to the poor victims, and to the driver, poor, poor bastard if this is an accident, what a thing to have to live with, just doing your graft and making such an awful mistake.

    I have epilepsy & that's why I'll never drive again.
    Just can't take the risk.

    News like this is bad enough at any time, but made worse at this time of the year Billy.

    RIP to those poor people and my thoughts are with their family.
