Luton airport...

''Four firefighters and one member of airport staff are in hospital after the fire broke out on Tuesday...''
 
with modern cars wider&longer than predecessors, they'd be closer, which allows fire to spread faster ... was sprinkler system working
Sprinkler lol. That wouldn't do ****. The whole car park has collapsed so that's going to be an expensive insurance job.
 
I don't know if that relates to you can being burned to the ground. These airport parking places are not cheap either. It was more expensive to park our car at Stanstead for 3 days than it was for 2 of us (and 2 nippers) to fly to Ireland. Outrageous.
Yeah I had that a few years ago at Stanstead, parking the car was more expensive than the flights to Germany. Complete rip off.
 
As an older driver who got his licence in the early '80's I well remember the simple cars of years gone by, but much prefer modern cars with all the driver aids, especially with the amount of traffic and appalling driving standards these days (of course driver aids and appalling driving may be linked. Stick a spike in the steering wheel rather than an airbag and people might be more careful :p ). I do think wing mirror cameras are a step too far though.
