Driver kills 11month old child.

[Kikki]

Neighbours tackled the man, which means NO he wasn't running to get help, help was already there. I understand though, shock and all, I think anyone would run.

There had been earlier reports of this car speeding throughout other areas in Perth, the police had been called about a Red Monaro speeding and weaving through traffic along Albany highway, could be another car? possible. But I am pretty sure the charges etc and police media reports so far, yes he was speeding & drinking.

Check out this link.... The Monaro was airborne for 12 metres!

OK OK he was not speeding then. He was just driving nomally and some how hit a car jumped a wall/fence smashed into a house and kill a baby. The report may be wrong.

Baby is still dead - Car still hit a house. He still ran from the accident.

Baby aint comming back and he will get years in the slammer.

That bit wont change.

(he really probably almost certainly with out doubt was driving a wee bit too fast for his ability then) Just maybe. hmmm

Well, after reading that police report I think it sheds a bit mroe light on the situation. Very sad to see this happen.

I find it hard to believe a car doing 50-60kms would be airborne for 12 meters. Terrible loss, huge horrible mistake that yet another idiot driver will have learn the hard way.

60km/h = 17 metres a second. only needed to be off the ground for a split second to go that for doing the limit

While im not going to comment on what happened here, people presuming he ran because he is guilty is stupid. My friend, whilst on Ps, got cleaned up by someone and that forced his car to hit another, killing the other car's passenger. After he saw the damage he went into shock and ran around a corner and crouched over and started throwing up.

The person in the car that made the illegal turn that hit him got out of the car and tackled him while he was on the ground chucking up his guts. That made people automatically assume the P Plater was at guilt. Luckily the facts defended my friend and not the moron who was in the wrong.

Going into shock is a hell of a thing, been there myself, you dont really remember what you did hence its name and everyones reactions are always different.

to be fair stocky, the inital impack is going to dampen alot of the speed the car is carrying, especially to get it airborne i say 5-7 meters is conieveable at that speed

i reckon he woulda been going atleast 70 or 80

Who knows that he didnt try and hit the go pedal to avoid somthing, or even by accident? Too many variables for us to stew over.
