It depends on how idiotic their behaviour was i guess and if any innocent people were harmed. More than two or so deaths by risky behaviour is almost always going to be tragic, but wether i care enough or am upset about it really depends.
E.g if one drunk driver crashes into a tree at 140kmph and kills just himself i dont much care. If he has his 15yr old brother in the car too, then i care. If the brother is 18, then its still tragic, but i dont care as much [probably because the adult brother should have known better.
This melbourne case, it was a bunch of young people [including a 15yr old girl] who all knew each other, a few of them were siblings...5 young deaths in one hit like that is pretty tragic. Dont forget about the underage girl who was underneath her dead brother and his dead mates, trapped in a completely torn apart car...yeah its pretty tragic and stuff like that gets to me.
The only dead one i dont care about is the driver [sucks that he was young and foolish, he might have grown up and realised how dumb he used to act] the other passengers...yeah they might have made a stupid decision to get in the car, but they hardly deserved to die for it. Its a strange thing about human psychology....we like to put some sort of blame on people when bad things happen to them, as if being able to say they made a mistake means you can avoid that mistake and not die....it makes us feel like we can control our environment and that bad things wont ever happen to us because we are smarter than that.... the fact is that sometimes things get fucked up and people die, and that everyone makes minor mistakes every day and 99% nothing bad happens. Sometimes i drive and i get a bit tired, it happens to everyone and everyone usually just keeps on driving.... if i fall asleep at the wheel and die did i then deserve it? we can improve our chances of survival and thats about it, not every danger can be avoided and its imposible to perfectly control your own environment....no matter how good you are, one day you will make a mistake and most likely nothing bad will come from it, but if tragically you do die, you can take comfort in the knowledge that teenagers on the internet will be criticising you and implying you deserved to die for making a mistake.

I'd prefer this didn't happen
