Is it me, or is chennai suddenly becoming unsafe?
Every day i hear about MTC buses driving over motorists and Water tankers killing someone on the Tidel Park road.
Every single day.
Including today.
It's becoming scarier and scarier to drive in the city with absolutely no respect for human life. Half the buses have no brakes!
And how many..!!
How many young software engineers or call centre employees have died?
How many more need to die before things change?
How many drunk idiots are taking to the wheel?
How many testosterone fuelled maniacs are ploughing into innocent girls on bikes? how many more deaths need we see before this city changes?
Earlier, each death would haunt us. Now it's just a statistic. One more dead in Taramani, ECR claims one more, One more drunk driver languishes in prison while a family mourns.
Please, if you drive a bike.. at whatever speed.. wear a helmet.
If you drive a car, wear a seatbelt.
Stay out of the streets in the night.
Don't drink and take the wheel. You have no idea how clouded your judgement can become after just one drink.
I know, we always feel like it happens to someone else.
Lately, someone else seems closer and closer to home..
