RIP fellas
[url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11922726 ]8 cyclists killed by driver in Italy[/url]

From reports, looks like the driver was under the influence of drugs and previously banned for dangerous driving. Hope he gets locked up forever

Maybe we should wait for the outcome of the trial?

Just a thought. I'm not a fan of jumping to conclusions or recreational grief myself.

Stated on a news channel that the driver was drugged up, and now hopefully a bit roughed up.

Similar thing happened over christmas a few years ago, a driver with a few dodgy tyres and black ice the council hadnt salted despite a request from the local police.

That's sad. One of the guys in a local club was taken out by a wagon driver last Wednesday.
RIP Javier. 😥
