Traffic accidents are bound to happen as there will always be human error, so one can never be too safe on the road.
I had my fair share of traffic accidents and luckily I came out of it unscathed.
FYI, I was the passenger.
As much as we obey traffic rules, we are not immune to mishaps.
In theory, all you need is a reckless driver to go all GTA on innocent pedestrians to cause harm.
According to Straits Times, a Mercedes-Benz crashed into four innocent people on Thursday (7 Dec) night.
What happened
The said vehicle mounted a divider on Tanjong Pagar Road and then collided with a lorry before crashing into three men and a woman.
Tourist, Theo Ofori was one of the witnesses and he mentioned that the Mercedes appeared to have lost control when it hit the pedestrians.
After it collided with the lorry and hit the pedestrians, the car then knocked into a Trans-Cab taxi.
“They were thrown to the ground. One was bleeding severely from the head after the accident,” he added.
Within five minutes, the ambulance arrived.

The man behind the Mercedes-Benz is a 41-year old driver and he was arrested for allegedly drink driving.

Thoughts
I am speechless…
I can only imagine, “What are the victims feeling right now?”
