I was very bored and dizzy in the car, in order to keep me a little alive , I began looking around through the window. A white ovan car was trying ti force his way through to get out of the traffic in order to get to his destination on time. The driver wanted to over-take a green opel saloon car but the driver of the saloon car also wanted to get to his destination on time. He had little childrem seated at the back o the vehicle. I began to laugh, this was entertaining. It was finally time and the cars were beginning to move. The driver of the green car began to move and the driver of the white ovan also began to move. I began to hear some screeching sounds, my heart sank. I turned to the spot in which the sound was louder. I saw a flame of fire, the two cars had crashed. A group of people went to stand around the spot of the incidence. Piece of glass lay everywhere on the floor. The two drivers and their passengers looked injured. The children had lost conciousness. In about some few minutes, we heard the siren of ambulance. The police also came around. From an estimated number twelve people had lost their lives and five were seriously injured. The two cars had become very damaged and could never be re-used. As a result of the accident, the traffic became more intense. The people around began to shake and put their hands on their heads. A big yellow tractor came to pick up the damaged cars and the road was free again. A police began to direct the road and we kept moving even

    Entering a road that I assumed is the Old Road, it looked very mistrustful and mysterious but I still took it. If I was wrong I would just make a U-Turn and return to the major road. I have never used the Old Road before so I was a little afraid of what we might encounter on this journey, so I told everyone to wind up their windows. While making our way up the road, we spotted rusty old car parts, some burned cars and heaps of garbage along the roadside. Ten minutes later down the road and I was fully convinced that I had taken the wrong road, so did my friends. I made a U-Turn in a side street. On our way back up the road we cud see a man wearing a yellow and orange striped shirt running towards the car. We did not know where he came from but it looked like he appeared from some nearby bushes. He threw a brick through the windscreen and it came caving in. The entire glass chattered and covered the front seat. My friend Abigail whom was sitting in the passenger’s seat got the worst of the fragments of glass. It covered her entire legs and when I looked down there was a lot of blood. Everyone was screaming and panicking and mostly in shock as to what just took place. The man then tried to open the back left passenger door. Luckily my friend Susan, who was sitting there, managed to close it back with speed. As soon as I saw that I knew that something had to be done quickly, so I put the car back in…

    It was a typical drive to school- fingers tapping on the steering wheel as I sing along with the overplayed pop song playing on the radio station. As I approached an intersection, I saw a dark blue sedan coming from the left, but realized that the driver had a stop sign and I did not. Therefore, I continued driving-still singing and tapping to the rhythm of the song- when suddenly, I found myself slamming on the brakes. My body jerked forward, and I looked up to find the front of my car collided with the dark blue sedan.…
