Road Accidents

Where ever I would look, all I would notice for the next few weeks are newspaper headlines screaming in bold letters, reporters on T.V talking 24/7 and people going, "Good Lord. Not again.", all about road accidents. This lead me to think, why do such life threatening acts happen? Does is happen because some person is stupid enough to disobey rules of the law and make a mistake or does it happen merely because of an accident? Are we responsible for this, or does this happen because it was meant to? I've looked into it and have found quite a number of reasons why such things happen.

One of the reasons of this, I found, is because of the drivers themselves. Some drivers drive beyond the speed limit, especially teenagers, and don't stop for the traffic lights. What do they think they are in, the Grand Prix? I merely like to label them as people who are color blind: red would mean green, green would mean green, and amber would mean green. They don't stop to look whether people are crossing the road, nor would they stop to see whether a car is crossing their path or not. Such stupid and infuriating acts, sadly, cause injuries, damage to their million dollar vehicles, and even death.

Drunk drivers. Reason number 2. Of course, all drunk people would think that the planet revolves around them. Yelling and laughing, they would drive off course, beyond the speed limit, and won't know where the heck they are going. Then they would blame the vodka bottle for such acts happening. Uh, excuse me! Who's the idiot who thought of drinking them in the first place? Alcohol and parties might mix. However, alcohol and driving certainly does not mix. When are people going to learn, I honestly wonder.

Then there are these people who have this wonderful view of looking into the world, which I call "The Tunnel Vision." They don't see what goes around them, they only see what is in front of them. Pedestrians, especially,
