Anti 4x4 BBC. Again.

Boggert:

--- Quote from: "Range Rover Blues" ---Actually it appears that there were 2 Range Rovers involved, one that the girl was following and the one that hit here.

But for crying out loud, she was 7 years old and driving a motorised vehicle on the public highway.

Her parents should be locked up for this, it's extremely stupid if not criminal.
--- End quote ---


Agreed, what were they thinking...

I had heard that the woman had been released with out charge pending enquiries.

mike142sl:
I didn't hear it as a jab at 4x4s but as an indication between the size of what was being driven, i.e. a small quad bike and a very large car.

Either way as Blue has pointed out WHY was a 7 year old allowed to drive this on a public highway - especially after dark ?????

Boggert:
You know its amazing how many people don't know that they are not allowed to do that. Its either that or the play igronence, but either way with me there is no option the vehicle is seized no matter what.

I do think that should the circumstances show the parents knew the girl was using it on the public highway and did nothing to stop it then they should end up in court.

Harsh may be, but when will people learn.

V8MoneyPit:
That was my first thought too. Obviously, it is tragic that someone so young has lost her life, but she shouldn't have been there in the first place.

The fact that she was hit by another vehicle means there may be some fault to lay with the other driver. That remains to be seen.

Was it dark when this happened? Did the quad have lights? There are so many things we don't know. So it is impossible to lay blame at this point.

muddyjlx:
i can feel for the familly that lost their 7 year old in this accident, but what about the poor woman who hit her.

how can she be feeling right now, even if it was her fault and i'm not sayining it was.

but why oh why would anyone let a 7 year old out on a quad on a road at christmas.
surely the back garden was the place to be learning how to ride a quad.
