Dr Forti was one of the kindest most personable people I have ever met not to mention long term family friend. The most upsetting thing here is no one is learning from the lives we are losing, when are the council going to sit up and listen? When are they going to monitor the road more carefully and make would be drink drivers think twice before getting into their cars? tragic waste of yet another life.

And good luck with that, as you can drive past a Police car 10 miles over the speed limit, with a can of beer in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, and they still won't bother to pull you over.

My thoughts go out to the family and friends at this tragic time.
