    “Obviously it's not the car I was worried about but more the fact that my family were in it !
    The elderly lady has since died, so if it wasn't for the driver doing 40mph on the wrong side of the road you wouldn't be needing to pray for anyone !”

    “Whether he had been smoking cannabis or not, the idiot driving missed my wifes car by an inch, he should be the one left in a critical condition not the poor inicent old lady who was walking on the pavement. If she dies he can live with it for the rest his life !”
