Just heard from tv news. Last year a cab driver knocked down a man at Orchard Road was sentenced to a year jail.

This is a very ridiculous and unneccessary fatal accident. I think the cabbie only scatched the man's car then the man quarrelled with the cab driver. The cab driver does not want to waste time quarrelling with him so he got on his cab and intended to drive away since they have exchanged their licence and taken down the particulars ( everything can be settled by their insurance companies )

But this man just can't let the cabbie go and he used his body to stop the cab and resulting himself being knocked down. A month after, the man died due to the great impact on his head after 3 major operations.

I felt that the man is very stupid to get aggitated so easily and even it's a big dent on his car, it can be repaired. He must be someone who treat money more important than his own life. Why take risk of killing yourself when it's such a minor accident ?

Moral of the story : Never make assumptions.

This reminds me of the day before when I went Ikea with Dar and Charlotte. I was carrying Charlotte and Dar taking umbrella cos it's raining and we were crossing the road when there's a lot of cars leaving the car park. I am just being caution stopping before the car approach me but Dar tell me why I am so afraid when they should stop the car for me. THey won't dare to knock me down one.

I am so angry cos I am just being careful. Somemore I am carrying Charlotte in my arms. Why must I take risk or assume the car will stop when it's not even a zebra crossing or traffic light ? I think Dar realised he is being harsh on me so after about 10 minutes, he tried to talk to me again. haiz.... Dar is soooo similar to the man whom I mentioned above. Hope he will change his way of thinking in this.
