Driving is a huge responsibility


I DECIDED to write about my own experience with a vehicular accident because of the huge debate that is going on now over the driver who was in an accident that killed children riding bicycles illegally on the highway in Johor.

When I got my first driver’s licence as disabled driver, I was taught to be a “defensive driver”. What that means is to follow the traffic rules meticulously. Keep to the speed limits. Slow down at corners, the sharper it turns, the slower you go.
