I'm horrified. My heart is very unsettled now. I can't believe that it actually happened, right before my very own eyes!
I was on my way home from work. As usual, I drove by The Spring Shopping Centre. There, I spotted 2 guys trying to cross the busy highway like many others who ignore the danger of doing so. Cars travel like lightning on the road and still people do it.
I heard a loud noise. Somebody shouted 'OI!!!' and when I turned my head to check, I saw it. BANG! One of the guys was hit by an oncoming motorbike! Both the motorbike and the rider somersaulted in the air, hit and slided a few meters on the ground. The other guy painfully wrapped himself like a ball in the middle of the road. The impact was huge. It was horrifying! I had goosebumps for... I can't remember how long. I was distracted by the scene. It haunts me! It kept playing over and over again in my mind!
Is it worth it to risk your and other innocent people's lives like that just because you decide to save $1 on parking? Or just because you don't want to use the pedestrian crossing because you need to walk 500m to get there?
I don't know how the guys do after the accident. I can't find any reports on that anywhere the next day.... But judging from what I saw, it was pretty bad. I hope everyone understands the danger of crossing a highway and stops doing it....
This is the crime scene

OMG.... i saw once before a guy was hit by a car to his chest.. he is like spiderman or superman or some hero movie characters, jerked up into the air and fall on his chest down.... OH GOODNESS... the guy still could climb up and walk away.. i also wondered did he go for a thorough medical check up, probably he has internal injury.. really scary.. i screamed in my car...
oh gosh, i hope you are not scarred for life! so scary to witness it with your own eyes huh? I feel for you
ahem~ i am one of the pedestrian, not really b'cos of the rm1 parking fee but to avoid massive car park traffic jam after the Spring close for business. Pedestrian crossing too far lah~ u also say 500m loh, anyway, i dont agree it's a highway, just need to be extra careful...hmm, maybe should suggest to the Spring to build one pedestrian crossing just in front of their entrance :p
well...kuching will always be kuching..either lazy, cheapskate or whatever reasons, accidents always happen when ppl are ignorant...if wanna do bad things, better make sure you take precautious to not get "caught"...
