Twelve people, including two police officers, have died this week and three others were seriously injured in separate instances (One in Ireland) where cars were driven the wrong way down both a motorway and a dual carriageway. There appears to be a craze among a more moronic type of teenager to post footage on social media driving the wrong way down these roads and filming it so they can upload to social media. We all did stupid and risky things at that time of life, but this is taking stupidity to a new level.
It could be any one of us coming the other way.

And now it has been all over the news and "social media" it'll get worse.
Tik Tok declined to attend a meeting in Ireland as they were the only ones invited.
Surely time to ban Tik Tok and others until they have an algorithm in place to stop this stuff being posted.

If you are feeling especially depressed you might suspect that those kids may be themselves depressed because they reckon their futures are gloomy with the arrival of AI etc ? Maybe they are not too worried about sudden expiry (some teenagers feel immortal anyway). Pity about any other parties involved.

Reports suggest that both sets of criminals are from Travellers background. The gaudy funerals certainly back this up.
Why are Travellers a protected species? Genuine question?

When I worked for a London Borough I had dealings with them. I won't say any more as I'd be banned from this site and possibly have the Old Bill knocking on the door.

That's no excuse for putting innocent lives at risk. I see the latest miscreants have been named, with one having posted videos of him being chased by police.

I'm not suggesting an excuse, only an explanation. If it becomes a trendy 'dare' (as we used to call them) it may be hard to suppress.

They drove the wrong way because they know police will not pursue them under those circumstances,
