An "MG Rover" involved in the initial collision. Hope everyone on here is safe and well |

It now appears the MG Rover driver fled the scene:

It would help if they actually said what type of MG / ROVER was involved.
My guess would be a ZR ? As they all seem to be driven by maniacs around here. |

As far as I can tell all ZR's are driven by young males. Take a look at the facebook forums. Sadly a lot of MGF's are too but their owners seem to be be more interested in Bling. Mine had blue interior lights. I feel like Methusala sometimes.

Sad event, and when I heard what time of night it happened, well that raised some thoughts. Amazing what some people get their thrills from, and lose all safety awareness.

I'd class myself as a young male (being 20), and I have a ZT v6
