My apologies to the group.  I let my emotions overrule my reason.  I should have just ignored this and moved on.Tom

Subject: WG: Sad news - Rallyist Killed in Healey 100  So it isn´t allowed to say anything negative, even its the truth?Is that the world you are living?But to get back to the facts. An 82-year-old driver of a vintage car lost control of his vehicle while 
driving in Italy, drove into a ditch and killed himself and his wife in an accident.Let's assume that instead of driving into the ditch, he would have collided with another road user which can be very likely and 
this would have been injured or killed.The police, especially in Italy where it happened, would have arrested the person who caused the 
accident immediately, the car would have been confiscated and the driver's license would have been 
withdrawn forever. No mercy!The driver would then have had to answer in court and would probably not have been happy with his life anymore.Someone who has some sense does not put himself in such a situation.
It's just foolish at such an old age, probably through hubris, to submit to such a danger.I don't want to imply anything, but maybe a glass of wine was drunk as well, as is customary in Italy.

Subject: AW: [Healey’s] Sad news - Rallyist Killed in Healey 100 Why? Just because you do not like to hear my opinion.We are still living in a free world and opinions, even different to the own, should be allowed without shouting against each other..   -----Original-Nachricht-----Betreff: RE: [Healey’s] Sad news - Rallyist Killed in Healey 100Datum: 2022-10-07T21:46:31+0200Von: "Gil Rockwell" <gilrockwell at gmail.com>An: "josef-eckert at t-online.de" <josef-eckert at t-online.de>, "healeyrik at gmail.com" <healeyrik at gmail.com>, "'Forum Healey'" <healeys at autox.team.net>   Then I respectfully suggest that you not write at all.

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Sad news - Rallyist Killed in Healey 100 I do not see a need to please Mr and Mrs Twaite's daughter. When she is grieving, she better would have kept her parents from doing such a silly thing as a multi day rally or planned drive in their high age. 
Now she even lost her mother, who was definitely innocent. 

Sorry, when it sounds harsh what I write, but English language is not my mother tongue and I write this in English as I would write it in German language.

I don't think Mr. Twaite's daughter, Carolyn, would be too pleased to read some of the comments about this accident.  She and her dad seemed to have a lovely relationship based on classic cars and she must be grieving right now: https://www.classicdriver.com/en/article/cars/father-daughter-restocar-workshop-montreux
