Aaron has broken nose and wrist and cheryl is in a bad way (there off our site midland scoobies)
The seat hit them headon on the wrong side of the road apparently but dont quote me!
All seat occupants didnt survive and one was heavily pregnant too
Our thoughts go out to all involved at this time

Went passed the scene earlier today on my way home from town.
Could see skid marks and other paint marks on the road where I guess the plod have conducted their initial investigation.
It's on an S-Bend which is also part of a dip in the road from both directions (if that makes sense).
Dangerous bit of road there but also very fast for some!
There were some people near to the scene - I guess friends/relatives.

I don't know them, but glad to hear that the injuries, whilst sounding quite nasty, don't sound to be life threatening...... sadly the same can't be said of the Seat occupants......

Best wishes to those involved!

So close to home, such a terrible tragedy.
Thoughts go to the deceased and wishing a speedy recovery to the Couple in the Subaru.

Shows what a strong car the Subaru is if it is ever needed to be. Hope they get a quick physical and mental recovery.

Very sad for all involved, testament to the stregth of the scooby, wish a fast recovery to the two in the scoob, and thoughts go out for the families of the seat occupants.

The girl who was pregnant in the seat was my sister, Natalie. Im so heart broken over this crash and what makes it worse is i work for SUBARU!!
Is this some kind of message, its not as though there are loads of Subarus around. I actually built all the prodrive spoilers for the GB270's (nothing to be proud of), so what does it mean, if anything.

Just a coincidence?
I hope The two in the Subaru are alright, i know it wasnt their fault but at the end of the day a Subaru killed my sister, maybe its time to find a new job!

mate, gutted for you and your family!!

is it right I heard your sister made a call to either you or her fella to say I hope we get there as the driver is driving like a ****?

either way cars dont kill people, theres got to be human driving one, its certainly not your fault or anything to do with what you do for a living.
