I agree about that class hatred observation. The story was covered extensively in V i l l a g e s - N e w s, and that publication spares no effort to stir up as much controversy and negativity as it possibly can. I believe every story I saw about this case in V-N mentioned the Mercedes. Sign of the times, I guess.

Justice was done. Though no prison sentence can change what happened to that couple on the bicycles, or the impact that this accident will most probably have on the rest of their lives.
