Well, I trying to avoid accident happen in my part while driving. I will take alert as best as I can. Although I try not to hit somebody, I can't avoid if somebody try to hit me. Yesterday while I was driving at the local, right at the intersection; After the red light, it turns to green light, the car before me just keep moving, all of sudden, from my left side, a truck rushing by, and I had to hit the brake sharply. Scare me to death. Reality check, the traffic light is still green, and the other side of the traffic light is red, that truck suppose to stop, and I betcha that driver wasn't look at the traffic light at all. People just driving crazy out there.

Everyone seems to be in a hurry anymore. this is how accidents happen. Too many people rushing for soething they can't control. Taking the time to slow down and enjoy life will be more of a pleasure than racing around trying to catch up with life.

This is very valid point, I have seen guys driving very badly. they do not care about others and driving like world is going to end and they are last to reach the heaven. I met accident 2-3 times and now a days taking care from others driving as well, it is important to save yourself from others mistake. Safe driving and wish you very happy new year 2011

Its scary when we are driving. We can drive as safely as we can but it doesnt mean that we will be safe because of all the other people out there who might not be paying as much attention and can cause an accident. I'm surprised that on New Years eve people where you are were driving recklessly with so many cops being out that night.

Gosh, sometimes people just too rush, and they don't even think about the safety of others. When they about to apply the brake, they almost hit the people they saw. I just too scary to see those accidents to happen.
