The article is very lacking in details, but I will say I'm not taking blame away from the driver, it's not even clear if the driver was family.
I'm responding to the fact OP decided to add an opinion to the article, I don't agree cars on beaches is the issue here, especially on an island that's world famous for driving on the beach.
Reads like a child supervision issue to me; why are you mixing seperate issues?
