Driver probably should have noticed the trees growing in the middle of the “road” . And unless we are told what time of day he was driving it’s all a bit pointless. If he didn’t see the gap in day light he shouldn’t have been driving. If it was at night may be he couldn’t see it who knows? 
With out facts we can’t judge what happened. 
Also google maps terms and conditions say there could be errors and omissions.
So many lawyers looking to milk the cow.

Let me correct that for you:

Europeans ( plural, more than one ) are largely cheap Android ground ( What does that mean ? ) anyway ( singular ). Largely stupid, cheap people who somehow are ( plural, more than one ) happy to live under unelected ( no hyphen required ) commie like regulators like the EU? 

Asia, especially Japan, China and Taiwan, is ( singular, only one Asia ) where Apple should be focusing on. 

Corrected by a dyslexic European, you're welcome. 


People buy what they want, if they want Apple they buy it, if they don't then they buy Android.

Who are you to say they are stupid ? 

Bearing in mind Europeans invented the mobile phone, and the chips inside them.

I can see them now blood sucking parasites  sorry, respectable lawyers rubbing their hand together over another death they can rip money from. I wonder what is it like not having a conscience to guide you.   

While I feel soory for his family. Using a phone while in charge of a car ? Clearly people are very stupid. I don't even use hands free. Phones should be band in cars full stop. Fed up sitting traffic jams because some idiot thinks using a phone, hands free or not, is safe. More often than not killing someone else. And yes I do run my business and drive about seeing clients, but you can wait to answer the phone, better than being dead.
Rant over.

I always wondered on the denfintion of a professional. 
I used an old iPad to run my pos system, do stock take, receive texts for orders in the cafe, orders from the website. Before we open I do emails on it and any changes needed on our web site. I can add photos to the web site with my iPhone which connects to the iPad and it’s all done.
 It accepts excel worksheets from my accountants and is way quicker than my old windows machine in the office. It’s cheap, I can take it home at night to do accounts on line ( Xero ) . A lot of business I trade with use Xero for invoicing so I do my banking/payroll/Business to business payments with an iPad.
I employed 8 people in a cafe / garden centre and online business.  How professional do you have to be ? Or do we only count video / audio “professionals “?
Whilst it’s not for every one, nothing ever is, it is a very capable personal computer. If it doesn’t suit you then look else where, don’t waste time complaining it doesn’t suit you. 

As everyone likes car anologies:
I have a Lotus car it’s crap for towing, so I bought a Range Rover, you know what ? It’s crap at track days, but luckily I can tow my Lotus to the track with the Range Rover! 

So so my advice to professionals is to go out look at everything and then buy what’s right for your work.
