About 40 were also reported injured."

Something happened like this in the uk a year or two back, it was down to it being really foggy and people just couldn't see others braking. Doubt this happened there though....

Apparantly according to a guy in my office that used to live there, the fog gets really thick, all it took was one car to hit another and the rest is history.
Fuck !

My dad was saying over there they all drive whilst pissed up, but the police won't charge arabs for any motoring offences they commit. If it's anyone else then the book gets thrown at them. He does quite a lot of work out there, said it's double standards like you wouldn't believe!
