The family of an elderly couple killed by a car in central Taupō hold no animosity against the driver.
Abigail and Arno Vizenti were walking along Lake Terrace on Thursday when they were fatally injured.
Their granddaughter, Rebecca Black, told RNZ her family was not bitter or angry at the driver and planned to send her a card and flowers.
"It was just a senseless, senseless accident and that's all it was. We have a lot of forgiveness for her and we just wish her a good recovery."
