Special Careful in Turning Right
In this paper, I will describe two car accidents made me realize that we need to be super careful in turning right at the intersection. The first accident happened when I was driving my friend’s car. I was moving into the intersection to turn right, following the green arrow at the signal. Unexpectedly, a motorcycle came to straight from opposite line under the red light. I could not believe him because I assumed he would stop. But the motorcycle did not stop, so we crashed each other the middle of in the intersection. After I parked the car at the side of the road, I asked the motorcycle driver to be all right. But the driver ran away without answering me. The second accident happened under the similar situation; turning right at the intersection. At that time, my friend was driving and I was sitting next to her. While she was waiting for the signal to turn to be red on the opposite line, a driver coming straight gave us his way. So she was turning right. Suddenly, a motor bicycle rushed out from opposite line. It was too late for us to stop, when we noticed his coming straight. We hit him. Although she was calm, I was in panic. Meanwhile, some people helped him; one man directed me to call the ambulance and the police. So I did. Then, while we were waiting for the ambulance, my heart was pounding and I really thought that I did not want to have any other car accidents. Later, the reason why the accident happened is we thought the car would come but a motorcycle would not come. I should have remembered that a person coming straight believes that the car turning right would stop at the intersection. Therefore, I have to prepare for anything when turning right.
