I did not have the intention to make these photos public but since it's already been made so by another friend, I shall just make good of it to show everyone the consequences of speeding.I have survived an absolute horror of a car crash with 8 others. It is surreal that these only happened to me just 4hours ago. I am not going to explain how it happened but there will never be a good ending to have two cars coming into contact with a speed of over 120km/hr.
Just take a look at the carnage and to be honest, I really thought I was going to die. I thought I was going to die and I thought my friends were going to die.I always try to think how a person that is going to die will feel and I felt that today but I knew I did not want to at all. In my mind, I thought of my parents for about 2 seconds and that I am going to let them down by dying now. It all happened and ended for about 15 seconds. I saw and experienced a scene that is so common in a movie. Everything was just surreal and all in my mind was praying for our car not to overturn and to come to a stop.
Miracuriously, all of us survived and only one suffered minor injuries. What were the chances after seeing the damage of the cars? I simply could not believe our luck and I knew somebody up there did not want to take us away. We still have some unfinished business left here to complete and achieve.
As i am lying on my bed and typing this, I am thinking that we could have easily be lying on a hospital bed or even a casket instead. I am always deemed to be "scared of death" whenever i am sitting in a speeding car with my friends. I always remind them to drive safely because yes, i am afraid of death. Young men with raging hormones like us go for thrills but i hope whatever that have happened tonight will kill all those hormones. We shall happily revert to our "World Class" public transport for the near future.
For the plus points, it was the first time in my life that I called 999 and summoned for an ambulance and once again, it was another cool experience. However, thinking that the ambulance took 20minutes to locate us and arrive, I must say we were very very fortunate to have no one suffering serious injuries.
We will all sleep on this tonight and for young drivers who still think you will look cool for speeding in a car, think again because you might just see a tunnel of white light infront of you.
