Deaf man killed at blind junction

By John Hirst

ADVERTISEMENTS

Deaf man killed at blind junction

This is a tragic case. The driver of the fire engine failed to take into account that not all road users would be able to hear the two tone siren. In rushing to save human life a human life was lost.

Is this the price of human life Ł750 fine and six penalty points? I don't wish to appear to be too harsh on the fire engine driver, still, I feel that the car driver's estate ought to sue for damages.
