Wenn ich schon lese "..wurden ein elfjähriger Junge und seine 15-jährige Schwester von einem schnell fahrenden Auto erfasst." schwillt mir der Kamm, steigt mir die Zornesröte ins Gesicht und ich rege mich tierisch auf!

NEIN! Sie wurden von einem jugendlichen Raser mit seinem PKW schlichtweg über den Haufen gefahren. Wann gewöhnt ihr euch mal an, Klartext zu schreiben, Ross und Reiter in aller Deutlichkeit zu benennen?!?1?!1 Es ist auch - sorry, aber ICH schreibe Klartext - scheißegal, ob es sich um einen 3er BWW oder um eine Nuckelpinne handelt.
