Slow down, save a life.

Finally Sanjeev Nanda got five year in prison. What a waste of life for a Wharton graduate. Most of us would probably think that he got what he deserved for killing 6 innocent people under his car which he was driving drunk. Well, that might be the case and while it is important that he got punishment for what he did what is more important is that how could the accident have been avoided and how can we stop these kind of accident from happening in future.

Rash and/or drunk driving rarely seems to be monopoly of the elite on Indian roads. I am sure if any of us look back at our own recent past we will be able to see a either ourselves or a friend or family member doing the same, driving rash or drunk.
Although nobody has intention to hurt anybody when this kind of accident happen but surely we are not patient enough to think or listen that our actions even if they well intended could end up badly hurting somebody else and also leave a deep scar on many aspects of our life.

I think this is good opportunity for us to take a pause and see what we can do to avoid this from happening to us. Please drive carefully and also encourage others to drive responsibly. Please never drive whenever you are drunk and never body let any of your friends or family members drive when they are drunk. Please don't drink if you know there is nobody who can drive you back home and you'll be the one who'll be driving. Driving rash and breaking traffic rules could be dangerous even if you are in your full senses so please slow down and save a life .....
