Big vs Small

It is with sadness that I have to read news of a tragic accident which happened yesterday (http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2010/11/18/nation/7449148&sec=nation) in which 4 family members were killed by a reckless trailer driver. This is another case of a big vehicle bullying a small vehicle.


Why can't the government take action on these stupid and reckless bus, lorry and trailer drivers? When I was overseas in Europe or just nearby Singapore, no large vehicles speed nor drive recklessly. They are governed by law and strictly enforced. Why can't Malaysia do the same? Is it that difficult to do? I guess the only way for this matter to be seriously taken is when a bus, lorry or trailer crash into a politician's vehicle.

In the end, big triumphs over small...

Car vs Trailer

Read the online news today (http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2010/11/8/nation/7382637&sec=nation) about this accident which claimed 4 lives. What shocked me is that is happened on a down slope while the stupid driver of the car is doing an overtaking maneuver on a double line under rainy conditions. Is gaining some time worth the risk of all the passengers on board? This is just plain stupidity...
