<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">So it isn´t allowed to say anything negative, even its the truth?<br /></span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">Is that the world you are living?</span></p>
<pre class="tw-data-text tw-text-large tw-ta" dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" data-placeholder="Übersetzung"><span class="Y2IQFc" lang="en" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">But to get back to the facts. An 82-year-old driver of a vintage car lost control of his vehicle while <br />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 <br />this would have been injured or killed.
The police, especially in Italy where it happened, would have arrested the person who caused the <br />accident immediately, the car would have been confiscated and the driver's license would have been <br />withdrawn forever.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.<br /></span><span class="Y2IQFc" lang="en" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">It's just foolish at such an old age, probably through hubris, to submit to such a danger.</span></pre>
<pre id="tw-target-text" class="tw-data-text tw-text-large tw-ta" dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" data-placeholder="Übersetzung"><span class="Y2IQFc" lang="en" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I don't want to imply anything, but maybe a glass of wine was drunk as well, as is customary in Italy.</span></pre>

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. <br />Now she even lost her mother, who was definitely innocent. <br /><br />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. <br /><br />Josef Eckert <br />Königswinter GERMANY <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Gesendet mit der Telekom Mail App <br /><br /><br /><br />--- Original-Nachricht --- <br />Von: HealeyRick via Healeys <br />Betreff: Re: [Healeys] Sad news - Rallyist Killed in Healey 100 <br />Datum: 07.
