Not entirely true, the world would of been better if certain people were never born. Hitler, Bin Laden and all of the people from terrorist organisations to name a few!

Tough titties.

It's prevented them from carrying out further robberies.

It's saved us money by not having to house them in prison.

It serves as a harsh reality check for all car thieves.

I don't think it's that disproportionate actually... They could have easily killed someone else by dangerous driving. Them killing themselves is far more preferable than killing innocent bystanders.


I don't see any bad points.

I think this incident could be best described as Darwinism, one can only hope they didn't spread there genes to much before they made one too many wrong choices.

There's also many reports of cars being stolen with kids in car seats. So for those with children and advocating leniency imagine you car getting stolen and seeing your kids and car bursting Into flames in front of you.

Still mourning for the people who led to the death of a child?

Thought so....

would this affect the future premiums of the owners of the parked cars that were hit and subsequently burnt out?

It was an occupational hazard for them and they could have injured or killed another road user/pedestrian and you can bet your bollocks on a barn dance they wouldn't have stopped to check if they were still alive!

In the end no one innocent was caught up in it.

I'd say that while death isn't necessarily proportionate to the crime, I certainly don't feel much sympathy.

However, there is a caveat. Until we know the full story of how the vehicle was stolen, we can't realise the full picture.

If they stoved a door in and took some baseball bats/knives to an innocent family, well then that's life.........

Where this happened is just down the road from me, my wife has a friend who's front room is about 40m away from it all.

I have no sympathy for these 2 at all, it was there choice surely because where they had stolen it from and where the crashed happened and where they had previously been chased by a traffic officer earlier in the evening shows that they had been joyriding around, I'm sure they wouldn't be doing that if someone had 'made' them steal this car.

I do have sympathy though for the young girl that watched it happen when she heard the car skidding towards the parked cars. Also the various homes that had windows smashed from the explosion, the emergency services that had to deal with the situation and the other local people who witnessed it or had damage done to their cars.

The 2 occupant of the vehicle died yes but it was self inflicted and didn't care about innocent people getting caught up in it all it seems.

I feel for their families though so long as they are decent people, if they didn't mind their lads being like that then my views about them would soon change.

I'd hate to be in one of the emergency services with some of the situations you'd have to deal with. I've had to witness a few but that's enough for me, those that see it regularly... I take my hat off to you!

Having been a victim of such a crime, i've no sympathy at all. The lads who took my cars managed to rack up 6 speeding tickets (in 2 cars) ranging from 72mph to 103mph in 30mph zones. f*cking idiots.
