Ein 7-jähriges Mädchen erlitt lebensverändernde Verletzungen, nachdem ihr Quad gegen einen Telegrafenmast krachte, während ein 16-jähriger Junge verhaftet wurde

What’s the betting the 7yo, who was a passenger on the quad bike, wasn’t wearing a helmet? And that the quad bike wasn’t road legal or had any insurance.

This was at 10.30 at night too, by a local pub, so definitely not just a “tragic accident” despite precautions. I’m guessing the two adults arrested are the parents, who bought their “darling” 16yo a dangerous weapon and let him risk his and his sisters life being an arsehole on public roads.

I hope the girl recovers as much as is possible, but my sympathy for everyone else involved is limited.

Parents need prosecuting for this. Make a fucking example of them.

The number of times I’ve seen quadbikes being driven responsibly on public roads is close to zero (the times I have were by farmers).

It wasn’t too long ago that three or four kids (on the same quad) were killed when they went into the back of a car on a country road.

Degenerate behaviour.
