So 4 people riding an unlicensed quad bike designed for one person are killed & the car driver is arrested.
Our policepersons are wonderful.
A bit like the unfortunate driver who was taken to court for killing a cyclist riding the wrong way up a one way street in the dark without any lights and wearing black clothing.
Oddly, the driver got found not guilty of anything.
+1 Quad bikes are a dangerous nuisance and should be banned from public roads.
I think that there was a strong hint that the car may have been racing with the Quad bike, which may change things slightly.
Indeed - not wishing to be overly prejudiced here, but a 21 and 22 year old in a 300bhp car past midnight? I'm going to go right out on a limb here and suggest that they may not have been entirely behaving themselves.
Not that I feel particularly sorry for the idiots on the quad-bike either.

There may have been 4 people on a quad bike but does it mean that they were actually driving dangerously?. it is amazing how the swivel eyed judgemental immediately jump to conclusions without seeing any evidence

I'm not quite sure what you're saying, but I was talking about the car?
Anyway, with regards to the quadbike - it's near enough outright stated that the quad bike itself was unregistered. And, unless it was a somewhat rare 4 seater quadbike (Which I've literally never seen on a road and probably would be better described for witnesses - as they tend to have a roof etc), it's almost certainly going to have been overloaded. Given that quad bikes are inherently unstable (They're great fun, but are genuinely dangerous) then the fact it was being ridden at all puts them into a dangerous category.

So the riders even if they were pootling along at 5 miles an hour deserved to die?
