    “Well, luckily no one has been killed, otherwise these all comments would be different. It is not how people parked their cars, it is how people drive their car. he must be very bad / careless driver otherwise car won't turn over that easy. Out come of this case must be telecast for others to get a lesson .”

    “@Jules281
    Does it matter if cars were parked "legally" they probably were, but that's no excuse for idiot driving - they could have killed someone.”

    “Were the parked cars parked legally? Long street has it got any parking?”
