She is pretty but if I go outside my office I'll see far prettier within minutes. If it's all about the inner beauty then let's see some plain looking girls with brains and opinions. Calling this a beauty contest is like going to a supercar show and there being not one Lambo or Ferrari to be see.

I am a fully qualified rider having passed my test many years ago in the UK. For me, there are two ways of riding. How I ride when it's my life on the line, and how I ride when I have a passenger. Safe breaking distances and definately NO filtering when I have a passenger are just two of the rules I never break. Now I ride a powerful bike. The article doesn't say the engine size. But most bikes can far exceed the acceleration of even the fasted cars out there. But a truck thundering down the inside lane approaching a junction and you pull out thinking you can beat it.......that is just poor riding. It's my guess that's what happened. Mind you...many truck drivers thinking they are bullet proof leave the ducking and diving to the rest of us. And just carry on using their smartphones and reading manga as they break all speed and safe practices.

There are real chemical imbalances behind mental illness. To call this woman a murderer only shows the ignorance some folk have with the way the brain functions.People far cleverer than us know this! Sure, it's a tragic that she took the girls with her. They say there is no stronger bond/love than a mother to her newborn child. Do you people really think she would do this if she was in full control of her actions. People need to cut this poor mother a break. RIP to mum and the kids.
