Thats really really bad. A whole family??

The extended family must be absolutely gutted.


R.I.P

Its horrific isnt it

Yeah, 'allegedly' two adults and three children.



You can guess it was bad when they had to identify the CAR from it's chassis number.

My thoughts are with the relatives of those concerned and with the members of the emergency services who had to deal with this situation and its aftermath!

It's never easy, and I hope they do get the pastoral care that they need. Unfortunately it doesn't always happen! I know that from personal experience.

A baby was also killed in the car.

just been reading about this very said. My thoughts are with the relatives.

they have named the family now http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/7683001.stm

RIP all family involved, such a sad thing to happen.

My thoughts go out to the Rugby players family too.

some idiots to blame for this mishap, rip those involved,.

Wonder how exactly this happened? And why was the Portuguese driver to blame?

yeah the BBC were a bit flaky about the exact cause.

Terribly sad. The likely cause is the foreign driver, short of sleep, fell asleep at the wheel.

Just seen that the police have charged a foreign type person with Death by Dangerous Driving.

What will he get ? A slap on the wrist and maybe a couple of months in the cooler. No doubt we will find out he was on his mobile phone or watching some Spanish bilge video in the cab whilst driving, or as Chris says half asleep due to working way over his hours AND stealing jobs from OUR haulage firms.

It's six murders in my book. Lock the bar****d in his cab. Lob in a BRITISH IMPERIAL gallon of unleaded, followed by a match and see how he likes it !!

Grrrr.. Fizz Fizz.

my heart goes out to the family of those killed!

Seeing as the police where given more time to question him, I reckon he will get a severe charge. Six people dead through manslaughter?

jonah drove past this at 3.30 am the morning after this had happened. he said it was lit by floodlights as the police where still doing their investigations 6 hrs after... he said it was a horrendous site seeing the trucks burned out and the wreckage of what was left. at the time he passed, they were just moving the trucks in order to tow them away .....he said he was probably watchin a dvd on a laptop if the other foreign drivers he has seen are anything to go by, or he has probably driven well over the legal number of hours without a break as many foreign drivers do as they are payed by the milage they do.....

Love and Light goes to the family.. Terrible accident.. Condolances..

people die on this motorway every 2 days, a whole family wiped out? Such a tragedy my thoughts go out to the relatives
