Support of Milton?

I read a recent letter in the Shropshire Star, feeling disbelief that anyone could support Pc Mark Milton. The first point I disagreed with was: "As a grade one driver he will have received the best training that there is".

Yes, but even the best driver in the world could not avoid a collision going at almost twice the limit through St Georges if a pedestrian stepped out.

Second: "Does anyone think that a 150mph crash was in Pc Milton's plans?".

Well, no, but when someone drives at 150mph, there is a higher chance of a fatal accident than if they were going at the correct speed.
