No way.

"Well he shouldn't have been there anyway"

"What was he doing driving 61 in a 60?"

"Who cares? I don't know him so why should it bother me?"

If it was a close loved one I would probably go in to lock down mode and focus on what was important, being with family, making arrangements for funeral etc....I would not trust myself to read an internet forum and get even more upset!
