Good day friends! I read a news today regarding a foriegner who was driving a vehicle and run over a filipino guy and was dead on spot.
The foreigner was pointed as the one at fault...and the victim of the family asking horrindous amount of money for the damages.
The filipino guy has no drivers lisence found and the motorbike he was riding was not registered by the land transportation office.
As i was reading this incident it made me wonder what is right from wrong? Life is so complicated sometimes that we dont know where we coming or where we going!

That is really sad to hear the news.Does the foreigner has a valid driving license to drive in Phillipines?Then he will not be accused a lot as the filipino guy has no driving license at all.Otherwise,things will be more complicated to solve.Anyhow the victim's family should not be greedy and the foreigner should be treated right by the law.Cheers!

You are so right, sometimes we don't know if we are coming or going, I feel if he was wrong he should compensate the family for their lost, its sad that happened, we all need to be careful when driving things can happen at the blink of an eye, some people don't realize how serious operating a motor vehicle can be, as they say when you get behind the wheel of a car, you are not only risking your life you also risk the lives of those around you, this is something I always think about whenever I drive.

I have never been a fan of motorbikes ever, your hubby is right about that, they always scare the mess out of me, and the noise do not make it any better, when I was younger that was all girls wanted to do climb on someones bike little freaks lol 
feel bad for the family that lost their loved one.
