Useless reporting!

I have no idea how much the driver's house is worth.

Mail said:
The driver and the 24-year-old passenger were injured in the crash.
They were both transported to Parkland Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
According to the car dealership, Park Place Premier Collection, the McLaren was bought on Tuesday.
The base price is $1.15 million.

It has a top speed of 217 mph.
Autoweek called the make 'possibly the most exciting road car ever built'.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.
It is unclear whether the driver will face charges.
Photos of the crash were taken by a passer-by and posted to Instagram.
Is it just me, or is journalist content of the mail getting WORSE?

Short, simple sentences with minimal content all finished with a full stop. It reads like it was intended for a 5 year old.

Looks like Doc Brown got his hands on it, and the landing went wrong.

At least the P1 might have had a chance of hitting 88mph in a car park, unlike some 70's sports car I could mention.

Flemke ran out of talent again?

He'll probably blame somebody else.

He'll have to shop around as insurance premium will rise next year.

The Mail has journalistic content? redface

I'd always assumed it was just words chosen at random strung together in a random order. Sometimes they get lucky and form coherent sentences but the odds aren't good.

Looks like he was running in race mode with the ground clearance there, not suitable for the road clearly
