I have just witnessed what looks like a fatal RTA on Beach Road. I'm hoping not but there was a smallish blue covered object in the road. Can't bring myself to admit what they may mean. PLEASE take extra care tomorrow and forever. I know I will or will at least try harder to do so.

How sad :( What happens when an accident happens? Do they do an investigation and will the driver be prosecuted etc if he was found speeding? I've noticed such an increase in people racing in their sports cars with other drivers....drives me mad. Only yesterday I was driving home having picked up the children, and a car from behind suddenly sped up & cut up in front of me!! He was so near I could have easily hit the back of his car, scared the living daylights out of me! I know why he did it....we'd both just pulled out of the petrol station and I was probably driving too slow for his liking! Doesn't justify what he did though!

You know just last night I said to my husband as we were walking in the marina that i didn't feel safe on the pavement as cars whipped by at crazy speeds - just a nano second and they can loose control - frightening :(

As I have said many times here I do not drive, and each and every time I get into a taxi / car, I sit on my hands with worry. Extra care is so needed here, all of you keep safe, and I mean that sincerely. So sad to hear of another un-necessary death.

I don't know anything about Beach Rd accident but I had a general comment about taking care. Recently on Al Wasl Rd I slowed down to avoid hitting a jaywalker who was crossing during heavy traffic. After I slowed down I was hit from behind . Just wanted to remind people how dangerous it is to jaywalk when there is a lot of traffic.
