Terrible news and reading about it is awful. I remember during the freeze at the end of last year/start of this year I was in one where rain was literally freezing as it touched the road and peoples cars were spinning out of control on the black ice. Scary as anything. I was one of the lucky ones in that, but it was horrible

This was at the junction of where my parents live (literally 10 minutes away), it seems even worse when it's so close to somewhere you know.

I know it's probably a selfish observation but I was travelling home roughly the same time as this and I'm just so glad I got the train because I'd have been on that road such a horrible tragedy.

The Police are now saying
the Fog plus the near by Firework Bonfire Smoke made the area to hard to see. That Bonfire should not have been there so near. |

It sounds so horrific, a guy they interviewed in the paper said an Iceland lorry just completely vanished in the fog and they were able to brake in time but other cars just kept going straight into it at 70mph, and they just kept piling up, people were literally being burnt alive inside their vehicles the Rugby club were having a bonfire and fireworks display about 15 minutes away from the motorway which might have been a big cause of it apparently
Yeah lorries overtaking lorries are very frustrating |

Looks like it was caused by a fireworks display at a rugby club
If that is the case all those involved should ne sent to prison for manslaughter if not murder

Which makes the organiser culpable in every single one of those deaths. Given the weather conditions prevailing that night, they should have cancelled the entire event.

I had wondered why the motorway was blocked off yesterday and today when I went down to Exeter. Such a horrible devastation, I feel for all those involved.

This news story is sad especially as they keep showing the old welsh couple who died.
