Bad Driving

I don't know what caused this accident but other that a fault with the car it really can only come down to one thing. Bad driving. Which ever driver caused it a family will be missing their whanau at the christmas table. Tragic. Yet there is little learnt. Herrendous accidents will continue to happen and death will inevitably follow until hard to make changes take place within road safety industry and affiliated Government Departments. The Government has to take action to make that happen NOT JUST TALK.

I hear what you're saying but unless known best not to comment on cause of accidents. It may have been a medical event, a pothole something spilt on road. We all are guilty of assuming. I agree though that a poor family will be missing a loved one this Christmas. As will many unfortunately and likely more to come. The toll lately has been horrendous. Hey have a happy Christmas and a safe new year.
