    Rip. No words to express. Need tough driving tests to get licence for the motorist. Lot of people bought licence for money and didnt pass test result is careless driving hence tragedy. How many people going to sacrifice their life for irresponsible driving. We need police with speed guns patrolling roads and issuing tougher penalties this will add government coppers money and wages to police. So this way u control these reckless drivers killing people. At the moment u go to jail and come out of bail.
