The only way that you could drive through the road barrier on that road is if you were either exceeding the speed limit considerably or an idiot.
What a complete and utter waste of life! We all make mistakes in life and some get away with it whilst others dont! there could be many reasons this happened so best not speculate! This poor mans family must be grieving so badly and my heart felt sympathy goes to them! RIP Young man and my love to all who knew the people involved
who asked for your input Paul, at the end of the day a life was taken instead of feeling sorry for the young man and his family you’ve come on here to give your irrelevant opinion. Stupid idiot get a life
Paul, you are the idiot. You have no clue whatsoever what happened. The brakes could have failed, a deer could have run out, the driver could have had a medical event. Unless you know the facts, I suggest you keep your mouth shut.
He was a lovely young man A brilliant barber full of life so kind soft heart Very sensible guy Just can’t believe his gone So young 😢 His family are devastated RIH Burhan
