It's all very well to say that the roads are at fault, but since we know that, we should be more careful when we drive.
Recently, an exhibition was held outside the general hospital of Hania to highlight this fact. Cars involved in road fatalities were positioned centrally, at the entrance to the hospital, and each one had a sign saying how the accident happened, and why the driver was at fault.
This one was caused by the driver of the car. The sign says:
"He was out all night...
He was drinking...
His co-driver was a few more bottles of beer...
He set out in a foggy journey..."
I don't know which driver(s) was killed, but that's not that the point.
"co-driver was a few more bottles of beer..." Good one.
ReplyDeleteThis is very disturbing as it should be! Good on the hospital for putting out a parade of these battered cars! Nothing like confronting shock to hopefully slow down all drivers!
ReplyDeleteThe reasons for the accidents are more than one!
ReplyDeleteThey do things like that around here during prom season. The whole Blood run red on the highway. Not sure it really impacts the kids though. Every year, more are killed drinking and driving.
ReplyDeletehope this exhibition will help save some lives..
ReplyDeleteA gruesome reminder.
ReplyDeleteIsrael must be high on that list too.
We had decided that we should rent a car the next time we come to Crete. Maybe we should reconsider that...
