back to blog again, i think i can't leave this important thing out.
so the saying goes something like "Look before you cross."
yeah, it's always safer to do that.
i remember, on the 16th of october, after EL orals, which was the last component for EOY, this car was amazing. it was a new car, and perhaps that person might be a new driver, who has just finished and passed the examinations, what coincidence to finish our examinations together! so, i suppose we all do know what the red, amber and green colours of the traffic lights mean. anyway, for anyone who don't have a clue, here it goes:
red - drivers STOP!
amber - drivers SLOW DOWN!
green - drivers GO!
red MAN - pedestrians STOP!
green MAN - pedestrians GO!
i hope i didn't get them wrong. well, i suppose the lights have some co-ordination such that the green light won't flash together with the green man. but, i realised that the particular driver was adorable. (s)he stopped when (s)he saw the red light. GOOD! but then, as i was about to cross the road, the car picked up speed and zoomed past me when the green MAN was flashing. WOW!
that's why it can never be safe.
if you wanna be safer than others, go the extra mile to ensure sufficient protection for yourself.
lucky i didn't get run over by the car straight after EOY ended.
THANK GOD!
