Life can be so cruel sometimes..

I am a regular news watcher of Taiwanese news (dun ask me why, Singapore doesnt have as much happenings as Taiwan, which I suppose is good news to us)

So I was on my SCV today and I came to know abt a very happy family suddenly torn into shreds. Apparently the man was driving along an expressway for around 3 hrs, his wife on his side and his kids behind.

The wife worried that her husband had been driving non-stop for 3 hrs, volunteered to take over for him as she sensed that he is quite tired behind the wheel. So the husband happily obliged and stopped (illegally) at what we would called a forbidden zone where one lane merged into 2. (For non-drivers, think of it as a divider, triangular one, marked with heavy paint) . No vehicles is supposed to drive into the divider because it suppose to be a zone marking.

The wife stepped out from the left, and within a blink of an eye, a red car smashed right into her and her fragile body smashed right infront of her hubby and her young kids. very tragic.

The red car driver was a young woman driver who had been driving with alcohol limit exceeded normal limits.

So the news was interviewing the man who was sobbing uncontrollably. He said they were a happy family, and it is so heartbreaking to witness the death of his wife and the kids behind, who knows the psychological trauma awaits them later.

It just take 1 sec to make a folly and another to weave a tragic event. I feel so sorry for the family.

That day I couldnt eat much. For someone I never know, my heart goes out to you and your kids.
