I read about this in the The Sun when it happened and it mentioned Gav was a member of sax-p but i've never seen this thread before. From what i read about it in the paper it's a shame that another young man's life was tragically cut short due an idiot driving far too fast. It's a shame the driver didn't die too because he has murdered someone and whatever prison sentence is handed down to the muppet still won't be enough!
I never knew Gav but R.I.P mate.

Thanks for that Leeroy!

At least it's now officially recognised that the driver was at fault, but as already said you can't bring Gav back.
Hope to meet him again one day though but until then, Gav, rip

Probably, it's sickening. My old manager was the person who killed the Asian shop owner from Seaham off the A19 Doxford International junction she didn't even get a prison sentance.
RIP Gav.

Only just seen this leeroy.
On one hand its good the driver has been charged however I bet gav would not have wanted another family torn apart because of this as he was to nice a guy.
Yes the driver was in the wrong I now feel for his parents etc who have to face up to his mistake.
I had a pop up on facebook the other where it says reconnect with friends and gav popped up pretty much put me in tears.

Well Friday’s court appearance is only to here is guilty or not guilty ple. He had the cheek to say not guilty in the magistrates court on the 22nd July and said he still believed he was doing 50 mpg! My fooking arse was he!
Nathan’s mother also had the bare face cheeky to sit directly behind Gav’s dad Jonathan in the court.
The police for some strange reason will do give a predicted time he will serve.
The sentence can carry between 1-12 years and I honestly think we will be lucky if he does 18 months max.
Despite what Nathan does get, its never going to be any where near justifiable for taking someone’s young life, he hasn’t just ruined Gav’s life, long with his family and dear friends, but also his own.
Gav’s close friends will get a proper look at him when they all go to court on Friday.
I also heard at the weekend (Still to be confirmed) that the guy in the house, just next to where Gav and Nathan crashed, rushed out and gave Gav mouth to mouth and was successful, he was apparently a life for 10-15 mins after the crash, but the ambulance took 20 minutes to get there and he died just before the ambulance arrived.
Still think about him everyday nearly 6 months on, doesn’t help I have to see a blue rallye in the car park everyday.

The Justice system in the UK is a joke! I hope he gets longer than 18 months, you can clearly see from the damage to the car that it was going more than 50mph! I hope the court see's through the boys lies and gives him a longer sentence.
I shall keep the rest of my thoughts to myself, Sax-P is not the place to write some stuff.

Its a open thread mate, do as you wish.
However I dont have any high hopes of him getting a long sentance.

If thats the case, I hope Gav's friends remember his face for another time. Tell me if this is harsh and I will change it.
