    * it's just awful. They seem to think the driver may have had a heart attack or something and lost control of the lorry and it may have ploughed down the road before coming to a standstill. Walking along chilled out at this time of year you wouldn't see something like this coming :54: I feel sick thinking about those poor people, their families and friends. For this to happen at this time of year makes it seem worse.

    Horrific doesn't even begin to cover it.

    Looks like it's ploughed all the way from Royal Exchange Square to the Train Station, that is some distance.

    A witness on sky news saying it was traveling for 150/200 yard over the pavement, and the only way it came to a stop was when it crashed.

    She said she saw kids, prams, bodies lying around.. awful.

    It happened before 2/3 year ago too not far from George Square on North Hanover street, think it was just a normal car guy had a heart attack and ran over and killed people on the pavement.

    Such is the morbid fascination with this sort of thing. We all have this terrible need to know what happened and they feed it.:54:

    The 2 lassies at the bus stop ?

    Sure that guy ended up in court. Think he was on medication or that and shouldn't have been driving. Might be wrong though.

    He is an inconsiderate *.

    At the beginning he he left a smarmy comment 'It is not a situation whereby people have died'' -. Sickening.

    The way he said it though.

    RIP to the victims.
