Death stared at me in the face today.

As i was riding to school in the morning along bukit timah road, the stretch near behind beauty world, i noticed an unusual jam. Going further upwards, i saw an ambulance in the middle of the right lane, and a paramedic in a frantic rush. I saw a van there as well, and my 1st thought was that the van had crashed into the right fence..

And then i saw the lifeless body lying on the ground, with a mat covered over the face. I got a really closed up view as the traffic was moving v slowly..There was a pool of blood around the head, and i could see that it wasnt a big-sized person. And i saw his legs, white, and drained of colour.

It wasnt the 1st time i have seen death. I had a friend who died in the past due to the infamous army water dunking incident, and i had a close friend whose dad passed away and i was at the funeral. I have seen near deaths when i was in the army. And i faced death in the face on 3 occasions when my bike got into accidents.

But i could't understand why i just felt really sad and disturbed when i saw the victim just now. I rode away with tears in my eyes, asking myself why is that there are so many traffic accidents in singapore, so much that everyday i hear such news on the radio, and see with my own eyes uncountable accidents as i ride.

Have we ever asked ourselves why are our Singaporean drivers, riders, and passengers always in a rush?
