corsa will be going up for sale soon...no airbags etc....after what i've seen...not good...
insurance is a nightmare as her car with TPF and T but got lawyer on the case
from what i have seen of Vectra crashes they hold together really well. i bet the guys car was not as bad
so this may be a a good idea... hence why i own a Vectra, after my Corsa crash i would never own a unsafe car now...

unfortunately not mate, but i would get your solicitor to start getting things moving - although im not sure how long he would go away for on the basis of dangerous driving/drink driving, or if infact you go away at all on those charges.

really? ...
think the crumple zones take the impact....
but not good against a vectra...
got another story about when i went to see car at impound yard and his car was there but was on the move, spotted it at a garage on a low loader etc..
stopped and got reg..
police will not give me his details at all...
but i do have to praise
the police
firecrew and ambulance crew they were fantastic..
also all the witnesses that helped..
looking after kieran...
comforting me....giving me mobile phones as mine was playing up..
and one guy for giving me a fag

I was shocked when I read your post!
I hope you all make a speedy recovery man, and that the Vectra driver gets sent down for a very long time!

Mav, its hard to know what to say in these situations other than whats already been said. So sorry to hear about it lets hope you all make a full recovery and in time can put this behind you. It wont be easy at all and i wish all 3 of you all the best. I hope that tosser gets whats coming to him, a lengthy jail sentence and driving ban for a long time. Its just made me more intent on shopping the mother in laws boyfriend, who drink drives every time he is over here. 2 bottles red wine and 2 stella bottles most times then drives home. Ill put a stop to that, as its people like him that put lives at risk, as you have found out
Best wishes to you all.
