Absolutely disgraceful behaviour, so basically we have stolen car thats possibly been involved in another incident the day before, an underage driver with no license who flees the scene and a poor 15yo who's life (if she survives) has changed forever.
This is less about a burnout and more about the moronic behaviour of the individual who was behind the wheel. When they catch him lock him up for a very long time so he actually understands what damage he's caused to so many lives. Again uttery disgraceful. |

agree with all comments, more about a road tragedy than a burnout vehicle i.e "hoons"

it may or may not be typical journalism but - there is a girl fighting for her life and people are concerned about whether it is fair to hoons or not - something tells me there isn't much difference between journalists and most of society. they only care about their own interests
who cares about the headline - there is a critically injured girl whose life is at stake |

Im curious about what a person was doing near a vehicle doing a burn out. Unfortunatly in life, unnessasary risk results in a catastrophy. Everyone knows what young people (and often old) are like. I appologise if this sounds calase. The amount of social issues in this story could fill this thread for weeks.

somehow i think media made that up and all the teens were watching the guy doing the burnout and he lost control... never the less that girls life has changed

Forget about headlines...that's really minor.
A girl is fighting for life. The person who has done this is old enough to accept full responsibility for this (breaking into and stealing a motor vehicle, grevious bodily harm (or manslaughter if she happens to pass), fleeing the scene of a crime etc. He deserves a nice prison sentence... BUT A weak as water judge will decide that this pile of garbage deserves another chance (how many more?), and will give him a ****weak sentence of community service or a suspended sentence. God Bless Australia!

That is a horrible story to read as a parent.
My heart and thoughts go out to the parents of the poor girl that is fighting for her life and all their families and friends but also to the friends that saw her run over and in such a horrific way before paramedics arrived. I personally couldn't care less if this little mongrel driving the vehicle was taking off, doing a burn out or whatever.. he showed his maturity and decency when he stole the car in the first place, running the girl over and then being a coward and running from the scene. I guess in a way if he was being beaten upon then maybe it was a sensible thing to run but geez, he could have handed himself in already.. coward!! Don't ask why the girl or any other teens were out at 1am. You do not know the full story, I was out way later as a 15 year old and I bet some of you were too!!!!!!!

hate to think what the other kids and friends saw. Life changing not only for the girl but for friends of the girl see her being dragged under then the end result. Just horrific. .

Tragic just tragic. I hope she pulls through. And karma will take justice upon this coward of a human no actually not human he does not deserve that title. Im young gen y hey you idiots out there stealing cars and being morons grow up and grow old in prisons with people you deserve to be around, that behaviour is unacceptable, they should spend sentences long sentences with rapists, murderers and other various unsavoury characters.

Well heres a copy of the news report for when he dragged a police officer along with his arm caught in the window. The offender was released on a court order, gee that really taught him a lesson didn't it. Pathetic justice system again dealing with juveys.
Yet they had the nerve to charge an officer for discharging his firearm, which fortunately he beat. http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/a/-...er-firing-gun/

Guys - let's maintain some sanity in this discussion please.
I am sure that we all agree that the circumstances & results of this incident are nothing short of tragic. It is worth remembering that any one of us could just as easily been involved in a life altering incident similar to this one at sometime during our lives. Condolences to those personally effected by these events. Let's leave the kneejerking, & ineffective namecalling / expressions of outrage / calls for tougher sentencing etc to those that do it best (ie the politicians & sensationalist journo's) |
