It's unfortunate that it shows were you coming from and going to. Pity there are lots like you but where did you want the victims taken too? Home? I would have expected you to condemn the causes of the accident but alas.you have an agenda 🤯

to those who are talking about the age of one of the drivers, can they explain how he could have avoided being collided into by a vehicle which had encroached into the lane he was properly and rightly in if he was older?

Zrp is correct it does not have problems. It was instructed to behave like it's sadc time conditions have been relaxed till 2080.Blame one behind sadc and its initiatives zrp is fully under support of instruction from boss who deployed them last week. It's only unfortunate that death was conquered by seat owner to be let 17 come more blood is required by the animal to celebrate his success
