On December 6, a distressing traffic accident occurred on a road in Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province. An elderly couple was crossing the street, however, they chose to cross the motorway instead of taking the crosswalk. This decision ultimately led to a tragedy.
At that time, the elderly couple did not see a vehicle passing on the road, and they thought it was safe to cross the road. So, they decided to approach the motorway, in which the man walked in front and the woman followed. However, as they reached the second lane, a tanker truck suddenly started, and the man unfortunately broke into the tanker's blind spot.
The behavior of the elderly couple did not follow the traffic rules, and they did not choose to take the crosswalk. This decision exposes them to danger, especially when the man ventures into the blind spot of the tanker, which is a very dangerous act. For drivers, it is difficult for them to realize that there is someone in the blind spot because the engine of the tanker is noisy and it is difficult for people to detect the movement of the vehicle.
When the tanker starts, a terrible scene happens, the man is crushed by the tanker and the woman is almost swept under the car. The scene was heart-wrenching, especially as she watched her companion being run over by a huge vehicle, and the woman's helplessness and fear were reflected on her face.
This accident not only brought great pain and injury to the old man, but also sounded the alarm bell for us. We should cherish life and stay away from danger. Be sure to follow traffic rules and respect the use of traffic lights and pedestrian crossings. Safety is a concern that everyone should be concerned about, especially in urban environments with traffic jams.
The lesson of this accident is clear: crossing the road is very dangerous behavior. Not only is it a violation of traffic rules, but it can also lead to serious injury or even death. The blind spot of large trucks is a very dangerous place, and we can't expect drivers to be able to detect pedestrians in the blind spot. Those crossing the road illegally are responsible for their own safety, and drivers need to be more vigilant about blind spots.
This accident is a warning to all of us. Life is precious, and we should be responsible for our own safety and the safety of others. Both pedestrians and drivers should be fully aware of the importance of safe driving and following the rules. By following traffic rules, we can reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents and protect ourselves and others.
In this accident, whether the tanker driver should be fully responsible is a question worth discussing and pondering. According to the accident report, the elderly man was violating traffic rules and did not pay attention to safety when crossing the road. As a result, tanker drivers may also be considered innocent. However, in order to avoid similar accidents from happening again, we should also call on drivers to improve their awareness of blind spots and safe driving literacy.
Everyone should always be alert to safety and develop good Xi, especially in a city with heavy traffic. Whether pedestrians or drivers, we can only ensure the safety of ourselves and others if we follow the traffic rules and safe driving guidelines.
This tragedy is a wake-up call for us to stay vigilant about safety. Crossing the road is a very dangerous act, and violating traffic rules can lead to serious consequences. Drivers and pedestrians alike should be more aware of traffic safety and fulfill their safety responsibilities. Protect lives, obey traffic rules, and make our travel safer and smoother. Let us cherish life and stay away from danger.
