This is right on my doorstep, literally. They lived about a mile away from my house, and the place they were killed is a road I drove down at least twice a day. Very very sad news. The two kids were the sames ages as my two youngest (6 and 7), I am very upset

Have just got back from the crash site, can't believe how close it is to my home. TV crews everywhere and friends, relatives, and I expect total strangers laying flowers. Very sad to see.

I can't stop imagining that! Think of all the things we have done that they will never do. Sad indeed.

It is dreadful. Just dreadful.

Heard about it on the radio driving to Wolverhampton this morning.

Our office is at Preston Brook right at the side of the M56 so it is shockingly "close to home". The little lads were so young as well.

I can't begin to imagine what the parents must be going through and the poor drivers of the 3 cars involved will very likely never get over it. By the time they saw the kids in the dark they must have been almost on top of them.
