					<description>At the end of the day the fault is on the people who were killed and not the driver participating in the Gumball Rally.
So get off your high horses and shut up.

					<description>wait until next year for the first drivers to get shot by angry mobs of gumball haters. and nick is a plain heartless mad driver, trying to escape from an accident. maybe his's dads influential friends will get him out of jail, but a burning hell is waiting at the end of the ladder once he is done with his life. and for all other gumball dudes around: you nothing but a bunch of spoiled rich boys without any control of your behaviour. if you could behave, you would not race like that and try to justify being part of such an &quot;accident&quot;, by trying to play it down. and you would not apply censorship to the discussion by deleting critical opinions. all that there is left to mention is the fact that all gumball racers are just not competent and skilled enough to make it onto a real race track. they cannot compete with the real racecar drivers so thats why they need to drive their cars on public roads. they can't even afford to rent a racetrack for a single day. seems to me that those rich kids are just poor little puppies.</description>

					<description>Your thoughts and prayers are with Nick???

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over!

How about those two poor old bastards minding their own business and got killed cause poor Nick wanted to drive like Nigel Mansell with a hangover on a public road? I think them and their family deserve the thoughts and prayers. Only thing Nick deserves is a phone call to his favorite lawyer from his jail cell.</description>

					<description>Nicholas Morley car accident, Macedonia, May 2nd 2007

STATEMENT OF FACTS AS FORMALLY ISSUED BY THE MORLEY FAMILY JUNE 8TH 2007


•	According to two expert crash investigators, the vehicle driven by Nicholas Morley was travelling at no more than 47mph (76kph) at the time of the accident

•	The initial accident investigation was carried out by a professional Macedonian investigator. His findings were reviewed and confirmed by Dr Richard Lambourn, an established expert in the field

•	Dr Lambourn was an accident reconstruction specialist at the Metropolitan Police Forensic Science Laboratory for 23 years (1973-1996) and is currently a principal consultant at TRL, an independent, not-for-profit transport research firm and consultancy. It was the firm that reconstructed the car crash that caused the death of Diana, Princess of Wales

•	The cause of the crash was a second vehicle pulling out of a minor road without warning and into Nicholas’s path. The cause of the crash has not been disputed by the prosecution

•	According to the defence expert witnesses, Nicholas had 1.6 seconds to respond to the second car’s sudden appearance, causing him to react reflexively and swerve violently to the left. The defence experts concluded that the accident would have been unavoidable at 30mph (50kph)

•	The court declined to hear the evidence of the defence expert witnesses, although the testimony of the prosecution expert witness was heard

•	Macedonia is party to the European Convention on Human Rights, Article 6 of which provides a detailed right to a fair trial. Under the Macedonian Criminal Code, the defence has a right to submit evidence

•	The prosecution’s accident investigator is not a professional in this field. He admitted in court that he is currently unemployed. He further admitted in court that the police sketch of the crash site on which he based his findings is inaccurate

•	Dr Lambourn concluded that the accident investigation report relied on by the prosecution is “fundamentally flawed in its physical and mathematical reasoning.” He further concluded that it was “quite impossible” that Nicholas’s car was travelling at the 100mph (161kph) alleged by the prosecution

•	The family of the Mr and Mrs Cepunjoski, who were tragically killed in the crash, have called for the court to release Nicholas

•	Following the accident, Nicholas and his passenger, Matthew McConville, attempted to disentangle the vehicles and offer what assistance they could. They only left the scene after the injured persons had left the scene in local vehicles. Nicholas and Matthew then travelled to the border to alert the police 

•	Nicholas Morley and Matthew McConville spoke to the investigating judge at Qafasan, on the Macedonia/Albania border

•	Nicholas Morley did not try to flee the country. He was released on bail, with no conditions or restrictions attached. He was free to leave the country

•	Nicholas Morley, 30, is not a millionaire; he does not work in property</description>

					<description>Okay.

I'd like to publicly apologise for what I said.

I stated something without knowing the facts and came to a wrong conclusion.

I hope no harm has been done and that the people involved get back to normality as soon as possible. It has been a horrible incident and something that the Gumball could have done without

Again Apologies to Nick for running my mouth.</description>

					<description>Artefact, you write with true hate in your words.. i think you need to calm down and be careful before you talk such slanderous words to nick and oliver Morley as they are friends of mine and many other people, and you odviously know them from the outside as if you did know them they would never leave those people in the golf, it was a tragic accident for all concerned and nothing more, which has been spun by the press! be patient and objective not judgemental so easily and i promise the truth will come out after nicks trial.. you may think they are mindless,rich and irresponsible but that is very far from the truth.. jealosy is a dangerous thing and these guys are just enjoying life, they don't want to upset anyone but unfortunately we live in a country where success is sneered at not congratulated or maybe you think anyone who has worked hard and enjoyed success should sit at home for fear of upsetting people like you!! We only live once and you odviously share a passion for fast and exotic cars as we all do on the website, so may i suggest don't get so bitter get out in the real world, earn it and enjoy it, and most importantly share with your friends, and then you may start to enjoy your life rather than being bitter about other peoples!!
and by the way money is not just for cars and toys its also for helping your friends and family when they truly need it, something i hope you learn with your own...</description>
