The way this article is written it sounds like chasing a stolen car is now unacceptable. ::) few notable quotes that we always hear.

Mr Carwardine described his son, a trainee mechanic from St Leonards, as a good boy

So stealing a car counts as being a good boy. Doesn't matter if he was driving or not.

Coral Pasqua said: "She didn't smoke, she didn't take drugs and then this.


Matthew Baker said what happened left him "numb and shocked"

"We can't understand what she was doing in that car or why on earth she got into the car
Because precious princess wasn't the good girl that you want to believe she was. Or at least feed to the press.

Or as one of their friends put.
Charlene Lunnon, 16, said she was with Danielle, Daniel, and Kelly "messing around" and drinking beer in the graveyard of the Church-in-the-Wood church in St Leonards before the accident.

So what were they doing "messing around" in a graveyard? while underage drinking and almost certainly damaging property. Little angels ::)

As Ozzy said ...... sign of the times. It's the same as anyone dealing with children. The PC brigade seem to think that making children tow the line smothers their creativity and is tantamount to abuse. Once everything goes wrong they step back and blame everyone else. In this case it's the police's fault that the car crashed.. the Glaswegians have the best way of putting my feelings about this "Aye Right!".. The only time that you'll ever see two positives make a negative.

It's shocking, 5 lives gone. None of them should have died because all were under-age. Really sad. :( I read this the other day. Hopefully it will be a lesson for others.

None of them should have died, because non of them should have been driving under the influence of alcohol/been driving a stolen car (and more than likely being chased, or just plain speeding). Some people have a total lack of common sense, and unfortunately, they never learn, until someone is seriously injured or killed.

With the way things are going, this whole PC brigade might one day [god forbid] turn this entire planet into an Anarchist's dream come true. :-/

Anybody who climbs into a stolen car, being driven by 15 year old who's been drinking (& already has a criminal record for mugging), deserves everything they get in my eyes.

Take a look at the big picture before you get in the car numpty's - it's never gonna end well is it??

Quite frankly the now deceased driver had a complete lack of disregard & respect for anybody else - just imagine if your children/siblings or parents had been walking along the pavement where he crashed.

The kid was a loser & i'm quite glad that my taxes won't be propping him up playing Nintendo in a council flat for the rest of (what would've been) his life.

It's just a shame he had to take 4 others with him.

Call me unsympathic but they had it coming. Anyway, I'm sure the families will get lots of compensation as the sight of a Police car obviously caused the accident... ::)

Just another sign of people not taking responsibility...
