The incident is very clearly terrorism.

I don't understand why the Police lie about some of these terrorist incidents sometimes.

…drug driving apparently…

“The driver of the van, a 26-year-old man was arrested at the scene on suspicion causing death by careless driving and driving with concentration of specified controlled drug above specified limit.”


…one of the other two who were hurt also has life threatening injuries…

Or someone on medication.:shrug:


Yes, or that.


Why was it legal for him to drive a van?


Terrible he killed a young lady

[bots]

when you are told by a doctor not to drive, they don't inform anyone unless you have been seen abusing the direction. The onus is on the individual to inform the dvla of your circumstances. Obviously if you are in an accident, the insurance wont pay out

[arista]

[to inform the dvla of your circumstances.]

Yes, so many do not update them,
is a major problem.

The young Lady who was killed,
aged 20.
