it was a breezy Saturday morning.

I was taking a walk to make a stop at my favourite Mr Raju’s

‘nasi lemak’ stall before heading to an extra class. I was in a cloud nine after receiving my food
to fuel the day. As I was getting my change, the sound of a loud brake screeching and a bang
were vibrating through the air. I almost dropped my change from the astonishment. There was
an accident happened just a few meters away from the stall!

Within minutes, onlookers were already crowding the place of the event. I also joined to
witness the unfortunate scene. I saw a guy in his brand new car took a huge hit on the back of a
school bus. Mr Raju quickly made a call to the authorities while the other guys were trying to
rescue the unconscious man in the car. Due to the terrible crumple of the black Sedan, they
were not able to take him out. People were getting scared as the smoke of the car was getting
thicker and thicker. We were warned to stand afar.

Luckily, the firefighters arrived along with the ambulance. As fast as lightning, the heroic
firemen used multiple tools to get the poor guy out and quickly put him on a stretcher. He was
then sent to the hospital. Policemen also arrived to secure and jot details of the scene.
Investigations were done and it turns out, the guy was unconscious due to non stop working at
night. He rushed home to see his family yet he couldn’t make it. Thankfully he is now safe and
sound in the hospital and there were no one in the school bus except the driver since it was a
Saturday! The driver was also fine and the bus was able to claim the insurance. After awhile,
the crowds dispersed and I continued my journey to my extra class feeling a bit gloomy.

Accidents like this could be avoided if we take safety precautions seriously. Drivers should not
be driving if they feel like their eyes are as heavy as a stone. They should take a rest at the
nearest stop before hitting the road again. With this, accidents will not happen and everyone
will reach their destination unharmed.
