I for one wanted to see how the crash unfolded. When unexpected failures like this happen, I often wonder how it happened, why it happened, and what could have been done to prevent it.
Spot on. We can learn a lot from seeing the tape.

There was nothing tasteless about seeing the accident - in fact, if you where not told the driver succombed to his injuries, you would never know by just watching the video.

The net appears to have done more bad than good - a really deep sandy runoff section followed by a traditional tyre/foam barrier might have been better than the nets.
