Hi . This is TNWRITES . In today's post we are going to discuss abour essay A ROAD ACCIDENT
"Suffering is permanent, obscure and dark
and shares the nature of infinity."
Accidents or mishaps keep happening every day and every now and then. Some mishaps are unnoticeable other One trips and falls while looking at a poster and unavoidable clashes into a pole, still other smashes the tomatoes and slips like a skater. Such accidents are alright as they harm slightly and happen almost everyday. Sometimes, when an accident takes place due to rashness of people and involves harming others that becomes serious and alarming.
An accident and death on the road is a very common occurrence and there appears to be no remedy for it. The continuously growing traffic, the soaring population, and the multiple modes of transport , complete lack of discipline contribute to this tragic occurrence of accidents on the roads.
Once, I had also been a witness of such a horrible accident that I just cannot forget even after so much time. It happened about two years back but still, even today the picture of the horror is vivid in my mind, and, so much so that at nights I wake up shouting aloud.
The incident was so horrible that, I sometimes do wonder why I had to be there to be witness to it. It was evening time, and I was coming back from my tuition class when this horrid accident occurred in front of my eyes. While I was standing on the pavement getting ready to cross the road to go homewards, from one side, a grey coloured Honda car was coming at an unusually fast speed and, just as it appeared in front of me, God knows from where, a truck loaded with goods came from around to corner, and just simply dashed into the little car.
Oh! God the car went flying into splinters in front of my eyes and all the four people sitting inside, were crushed into a paste. A pool of blood came flowing out of the car. All were over in a split of second, and, as could be expected, the truck driver jumped out of his cabin and ran away to save his life, before anyone even noticed the accident.
"An automobile
can help you see the world, but it is up to you to decide which world."
The horrid sight made me feel giddy , and my senses failed me. I just could not understand what I should do. However, collecting my wits with an effort, I called the rescue police and gave them the information of the accident. By that time the police came, a huge crowd had gathered, and people were frantically shouting for the driver of the truck.
Now, the four bodies were being removed from the car. Oh! What a sight, a ghastly sight was now... all of them, one man, two women, and a child had completely lost their human forms and there were blobs of flesh and blood. Besides, the man and woman in the front had even crushed their skulls into pieces and neither could even be handled.
The woman at the backward; also crushed but, her skull remained intact. Her limbs had been amputated by the momentum of the crash. As forth child, who could be about six or seven years old, was blown to smithereens , only her head was intact.
"When sorrows
come, they come not single spies, But in battalions."
Seeing the condition of the inmates of the car from so close, and a pool of blood flowing on the road, my head reeled once again and down with a thump , I fell on the pavement. After this, I do not know what happened to me or to the accident victims.
When I woke up the next morning I found myself on my bed at home, with my parents beside me. My parents told me that, my address was found by the policemen, in my school diary and so, they had brought me home absolutely unconscious .
I was told that, I had been unconscious for a good six hours, the shock had been so intense. When I remember that day and that incident even to-day, nervousness returns, and even now, I start wondering who those poor people could be who had lost their lives at the altar of careless driving.
