When I was four years old it was my first time being in a car crash. My dad was driving. Everything seems normal as always when driving down Durham Drive. An old man drove up next to the right side. When the light turned green, we started to move forward. Unexpectedly the old driver steered to the right very quickly and crashed into us. Making us steed across the road. Fortunately nobody got hurt, but couldn’t say the same thing about the car. Furthermore, this is why we need to pay attention to the surroundings more. Instead of being on are phones or other electronics. Perhaps then there will be safer drivers that will follow the rules.
