We were naturally treated to the obligatory images of an injured child, also an old woman who is 'too scared to leave her home'. No substance to it at all, as to be expected, but it could have been much worse. Surprises me it wasn't to be honest.
The first thing they said was "High powered V8"..

I don't suppose anyone caught the web address of the site the father of the injured girl set up?

Any V8 is high powered to Prius driving hand wringers.

They did not specifically mention modified vehicles or imply that all drivers of same were homicidal maniacs. I found this surprising.
