    Four cyclists are killed in crash
    Four cyclists have been killed and another eight people injured after an
    accident with a car in north Wales.

    North Wales Police said the four were pronounced dead at the scene after
    a Toyota Corolla was in collision with a group of adults and children.

    Eight other people have been taken to hospital with injuries varying
    from serious to slight.

    The accident was at 1010 GMT on Sunday on the A547 at Abergele. The car
    driver is among those in hospital.

    Police said the accident happened when the Toyota heading towards Towyn
    was in collision with the group.

    The eight injured people were taken to Ysbyty Glan Clwyd near Rhyl. The
    air ambulance attended along with other emergency services.

    The accident scene is near the junction with Gors Road and police said
    both roads were closed while investigations are carried out.

    From the story, this junction:

    I don't know anything more apart from the Radio 4 report and the BBC
    website, but it sounds just like the sort of run my club were doing this
    morning, and I'd have been on if it weren't for my back.

    Utterly tragic. Except... we cannot keep calling motor accidents 'tragic'
    as if there were nothing to be done about them.
