How one crash claimed the lives of four police officers on Melbourne's busy Eastern FreewayPolice are still investigating the sequence of events that led to the fatal crash on Melbourne's Eastern Freeway, but Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton has offered a first timeline of events. Incompetence enmasse. Granville4879 Very sad, 1 was a trainee. Devastating for the families of the officers, sad for the poor refrigerated truckie doing his job. All because of a fool who pinched someone’s Porche 911 & ran from the carnage he caused! To his credit he contacted police Probably, due to the fact...'what goes around, comes around'. Behave brutally in Life, Life punishes you brutally. The amazing synchronicity in Life.
