The parents of two sons who died in a horrific car crash released a video capturing their final moments.
Friends Kyle Careford, 20, and Michael Owen, 21, died instantaneously after they were driving at speeds of 90 mph. Their car crashed into a church wall last April. The footage was released months later.
Michael’s mother Kat said: “We bring our children up teaching them right from wrong. We guide them and give them our advice and hope they listen, but once they are adults we hope they make the right choices.”
I would like all the young people out there to take notice.
— Kat Owen, victim's mother
“I really don’t know why the boys chose to do what they did, but I blame them both for the decisions they made on this night,“ she said. ”“If all this stops one person from making the same mistake, then some good has come from showing this video. I’m hoping it will have an impact on young people and make them see that a bit of fun can have such devastating consequences.”
The two were reportedly on a cocktail of drugs when they were driving.
“I would like all the young people out there to take notice and realise that you are not invincible and take seriously how precious your lives are to yourselves and others. I want young drivers to consider how much devastation it causes to the families and loved ones that are left behind,” Kat added.
