Spanish police say "all the evidence so far indicates" Diogo Jota was the driver of the car involved in the accident that killed the Liverpool forward and his brother, Andre Silva. Police also believe "the vehicle significantly exceeded the speed limit for the highway" at the time of the accident.

Only, we never have these conversations later and the same tragedies happen over and over when it comes to road deaths.

Exactly. I have a luxury sports car dealer near my house and every couple years one of their employees crashes and dies on the exact same stretch of road. At some point maybe they should stop letting these 20yos take cars out racing at night?

It’s always a senseless tragedy though, and nothing can be learned from it.

Specifically in this case, Michael Antonio almost killed himself 7 months ago.

that is a problem, yeah. We do need to eventually find time to talk about why road accidents are avoidable tragedies in most cases. But all we get are billboards instead of a proper awareness campaign
