 Christmas was always a huge, huge event in our family and it was really, really heartwarming to see our older brother being as loving as he was. We were sitting where we're sitting right now, watching the sunrise and we were reflecting on how proud we were of Jordan. You do get a bit nervous and anxious on the way there. You get that little bit in your throat, you sort of run through it in your head. How am I going to tell these people that their lives have changed forever? As I rounded that last set of stairs and I saw those two full-on officers through that glass door, my heart sank and my knees gave way and I knew, I knew that there was something drastically wrong. You sort of try and work through it in your head and you try and work out how can I soften this message but the message can't be softened. And they just said to us, there was an accident on the M1 last night and we believe your son Jordan Hayes McGinnis has been fatally injured. Five young lives taken in one hit. It just, it straight away did not make sense that somewhere from the text last night to this morning he was dead. And of course at that time we had no idea what he'd done. Five Logan friends were travelling south when their car broke down. They pulled into a safety lane to wait for help. Jordan had been at his work Christmas party. He had quite a few beers I believe and he smoked some cannabis. The reasons that we still don't know and we'll never know, he chose to drive home that night. A red possum came tearing off the road. A 18 year old driver didn't survive the impact. To the collision one of the vehicles has caught fire. It's hard, it's hard and it never gets easier. But then you deal with the after effects of that. That has a rippling effect on family, friends, loved ones and partners. It's never the same for them. Every birthday, Christmas, Easter, it's never going to be the same. Your father, he knows how to do more than that. He will visit every day, every year. And I think about it every night when I go to sleep. It really is a new normal and you're not what you were. We don't seek sympathy for this. The sympathy belongs with Jordan's victims. The choices that Jordan made pre-Christmas in 2012 will affect his victims' families for generations. This is real, this is real, raw incidents. These things happen and just because it hasn't happened to you it doesn't mean it's not going to happen to you or a loved one that you know. I think it's really important to put aside the idea that bad driving is bad luck. You're responsible, you're accountable for your own choices. Given that Christmas is about love and about family, if you really love your family then you'll very, very carefully consider your choices. You think about your family or your loved ones. You drive knowing that you have your hands on a dangerous weapon because that's what a car is. It is a lethal weapon and so easily, so easily that car can become your coffin. I want people to be patient on the roads. Just get home safely.
