PAN-ISLAND EXPRESSWAY ROAD ACCIDENT

Girl dies in PIE accident

Unfortunately the girl succumbed to her injuries at about 11 am and was pronounced dead, said the police spokesman.

It was an unfortunate incident that had happened to a girl who was only 12-years old this year. That day should have been a happy day for the Malays to celebrate their festival. However, on this day, this family lost their beloved elder child. It was an accident that happened on the PIE on Hari Raya Haji. There were three injuries, one death and massive traffic jam resulted from the incident.

From this article, it might just seem like a normal traffic incident that has happened. However, do you people think for another second that it might be because of people overlooking in the safety precautions that should have been taken in the first place? Singaporeans or you could say that nearly everyone are complacent about taking safety precautions. People often thought that these accidents that happened and what we have seen on the news would not happen to us. Moreover, what if it might just happen to us one day, we will never know. Through this article, I would like to remind everyone that we have always thought that many unfortunate things would not happen to us but we might not know that any day, ill luck may fall upon us. Therefore, do not be complacent, maybe by doing something a bit more would just save our lives someday.
