"Parents were yesterday warned to keep young children properly
restrained in the car after a toddler was thrown 150ft to her death
when the family's BMW crashed while she was on her mother's lap.
Eighteen-month- old Angel Nguyen had been strapped into a child seat
until moments before the accident at 80mph on the M4.
But just after her mother took the child out to feed her, an under-
inflated tyre blew.
Angel's father lost control of the car which mounted a grass bank
before somersaulting back on to the carriageway and ending up on its
roof..."

Oh look Dougs posted a thread about *dead child, car*
Look how he has expressed his sympathy over the incident.

You sad old twat

Instead of trying to brush it under the carpet like you, car junkie,
the article serves as a useful warning to others.

Of course it does & as I did not comment on the incident, I did not try to brush it under the carpet.
You really should read before commenting.
If you want my opinion, they were breaking the law & were stupid & nobody (I hope) on this NG would disagree.

And I still think you are a sad old twat.
