road safety
man this is gonna be another depressing week for me...
but at least this week we fought hard when trailing. that's the spirit! but... THREE red cards in just TWO games?! most of the time i try not to get too attached to anything so my mood wun get affected too easily but this time is just kinda... well depressing.
anyway, aside from being remember TWICE of last weekend's result on friday, it was a relatively allright week. i got to meet Liu and Yufen for lunch, Tingfeng and Derrick for dinner, bumped into Zhengkang, Aaron and Peiting. catching up with friends is always such a wonderful feeling.
anyway, there was a road accident near my house today. Saw the aftermath when i was on the bus. and it looked so serious that i thot someone was seriously injured. and being the typical singaporean, i went to KPO abit. the motorcyclist was lying on the road waiting for the ambulance and luckily seemingly not that seriously injured. and other drivers stuck in the jam (cause the vehicles were kinda in the middle of the road) were furiously jamming their honks, which was like SO irritating! HELLO?! there's someone injured here... can't they just wait alil and drive slowly to make their way through?
and the KPO me actually took a pic...

see? the car was seriously damaged. i heard the impact was so great that the motorcyclist was flung out of his bike, though it could have been worst since the vehicles were moving relatively slow in that area.
have been having quite afew of such experience recently, too many for my comfort..
just the other day, i was waiting for the Green Man with this lady when she suddenly started crossing the road. Thinking that it's Mr Green Man, i followed suit to realise no it's still red! with one of my foot already on the road and her being much in front of me, i stepped back when a fast-approaching car suddenly made an emergency brake and stopped to scold the lady. so of cos the car behind stopped, and before i knew it, there came a screeching sound and a cab crashed right onto the 2nd car. after the incident, i always make sure it is GREEN (with my own eyes) before i cross.
And just recently, my dad also had a minor road accident when a pedestrian suddenly rushed out of the road. the car in front had to do an E brake, so my dad's cab bumped onto his car. luckily it's nothing serious, though it set him back by $1.5k to pay the cab company.
and of cos, just on the news recently, a intoxicated (crazy) guy actually crossed the PIE! ultimate craziness! and what happened? a poor innocent guy died, with 5 other vehicles being involved in the accident.
these are all reasons y i dun drive despite having a license... other then not having a car, though i've considered getting a weekend car. but no thanks, i'll save up for something else. :)
