“It is extremly sad that this beautiful dog was killed through its owners stupidity but also this Incident could have caused an horrific pile up on a huge scale, have the owner/s been found and being prosecuted”

“I know it is a minor point compared to the consequences of the dogs being loose on a major road - but (yet again) Telegraph just does not seem to know area. It is not Coal, it is Cole Lane.”
