How tasteless. Hope she gets a short sentence only to be told by the prison guard that someone has stolen the cell key

Love the comment on the petition from Suzanne Sutton (shome coincidence, shurely) of Maidenhead, saying that lots of families have been effected.

"He wasn't wearing a helmet or reflective clothing and had flashing lights."

So she was able to see his flashing lights yet still managed to hit him...?

Didn't  you know flashing lights  make people drive into them? It's  why people are forever driving into tractors and bin wagons,  and why so many ship get wrecked on lighthouses.

Look at the mouth breathers who've added their comments. Plus it's closed after 15 comments? Nothing to worry about here (apart from being driven into by Maria Sutton).

Does seem a bit iffy to then set up a petition making helmets compulsory, all things considered.
