A good pal last night hit a 13 year old lad last night and killed him The lad was trying to cross a dual cariage way..

He's not the type who would be racing about but it's all been kept quiet whats going on and how it's happened.

It will probably take some getting over.

 

I had a good friend who died after being hit by a car when we were 14

I came within about 6" of running a kid over on a roundabout a couple of weeks back. It was night time, and he crossed the road right in front of me, wearing a black hoody & black trousers... I didn't see him until I'd already gone past...

 

That fair shook me up, even though nothing actually happened.

 

 

Commiserations to the OPs mate, I can imagine he feels terrible.
